史蒂芬·霍金(Stephen Hawking, 1942- ),現任劍橋大學盧卡斯數學教授。他廣被推崇為繼愛因斯坦後最傑齣的理論物理學傢。霍金的主要著作有《時間簡史》、《霍金講演錄——黑洞、嬰兒宇宙及其他》和《果殼中的宇宙》。
Book Description
"A Brief History of Time", published in 1988, has been a landmark volume in scientific writing and in worldwide acclaim and popularity, with more than nine million copies sold. That edition was on the cutting edge of what was then known about the nature of the universe. Since its publication, however, there have been extraordinary advances in the technology of observing both the micro- and the macrocosmic world, confirming many of Professor Hawking's predictions. Eager to bring to his original text the new knowledge revealed by these observations, Hawking has written a new introduction, updated chapters throughout, and added an entirely new chapter on Wormholes and Time Travel.
"A Brief History of Time" has guided nonscientists everywhere to confront the supreme questions of the nature of time and the universe, taking them to distant galaxies, black holes, alternate dimensions — as close as man has ever ventured to the mind of God. This anniversary edition makes vividly clear why Professor Hawking's eloquent classic has transformed our view of the universe.

Stephen Hawking, one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists in history, wrote the modern classic A Brief History of Time to help nonscientists understand the questions being asked by scientists today: Where did the universe come from? How and why did it begin? Will it come to an end, and if so, how? Hawking attempts to reveal these questions (and where we're looking for answers) using a minimum of technical jargon. Among the topics gracefully covered are gravity, black holes, the Big Bang, the nature of time, and physicists' search for a grand unifying theory. This is deep science; these concepts are so vast (or so tiny) as to cause vertigo while reading, and one can't help but marvel at Hawking's ability to synthesize this difficult subject for people not used to thinking about things like alternate dimensions. The journey is certainly worth taking, for, as Hawking says, the reward of understanding the universe may be a glimpse of "the mind of God."

時間簡史(插圖本)
注:該書有2個封麵內容完全一緻,貨品隨機發送
首先坦白说明,我18岁,因此论述浅薄请各位指出,后辈虚心听取。 读完时间简史有种很奇妙的感觉,原先不理解为什么学习物理的霍金会被授予PHD(哲学博士)。现在觉得每一门科学的指向终极都是对世界的理解,那就是哲学,无论是毕达哥拉斯认为数就是世界,还是霍金以量子引力论...
評分作为一名理工科学生,对HAWKING的经典著作完全可以用"膜拜"来形容.最初读<时间简史>是在高中,开始是当作课外读物来看,读下之后却发现,这本书的力量已经远远超越了一本"科普读物",在随书的书签上有句话:"读霍金,懂不懂都是收获."我承认我对书中的理论只读懂一半,但是它带给我的却...
評分7.当爱因斯坦说到“上帝不掷骰子”的时候,他错了。鉴于黑洞给予我们的暗示,上帝不仅掷筛子,而且往往将骰子掷到我们看不见的地方以迷惑我们。 6.我注意到就连那些声称凡事皆为命中注定、我们无法去做任何改变的人,过马路的时候时也会一样的小心翼翼。 5.我的目标很简单,就...

我第一本讀完的英文原著
评分文字間有種魔力讓你看完第一段就不自覺地往下看去,一直到最後一個標點。霍金用淺顯的文字嚮我們詮釋瞭理論物理學的蹉跎曆史和無窮魅力。從Big Bang到Gravity,從General Relativity到String Theory,在認識基本理論的同時,瞭解瞭曆史上眾多科學傢的偉大。盡管,我們普通人不及他們萬一,但是,他們的夢想,就是使得宇宙的真理能被每個普通人接受,我們是他們實現自己夢想的必要因素和條件。盡管在有限的生命裏,也許我們無法得知宇宙的真理,但是,能夠看到一代代的天纔為之努力而做的貢獻,爭執,我們也應該感到滿足。Salute to all geniuses with my entire respect.
评分怎麼辦, 看完這個我好像愛上瞭科學...
评分再次徹底顛覆瞭我對時空的認知呀!初中時候讀過這書,可居然把時間的相對性和時空一體性這兩個重要的概念都忘精光瞭,慚愧慚愧!另,認真客觀嚴謹又謙虛的科學傢們其實真的好可愛!
评分作為有誌與普及天文物理學以及讓此學科的基本思想能夠普及普通大眾的霍金,他的該部作品可謂是無比成功的。試想連我這種對物理學一竅不通,思及之便昏昏欲睡叫苦不迭的人居然也能津津有味地翻看時間簡史,不得不說是我成長史與書本閱讀史上地一個奇蹟。越看越覺有意思越看越著迷是我深刻的感受,隻無奈知識太少,讀到某些章節幾乎是徹底暈厥。。
