"If Ms. Frizzle were a physics student of Stephen Hawking, she might have written THE UNIVERSE IN YOUR HAND, a wild tour through the reaches of time and space, from the interior of a proton to the Big Bang to the rough suburbs of a black hole. It's friendly, excitable, erudite, and cosmic."
—Jordan Ellenberg, New York Times besteselling author of How Not To Be Wrong
Quantum physics, black holes, string theory, the Big Bang, dark matter, dark energy, parallel universes: even if we are interested in these fundamental concepts of our world, their language is the language of math. Which means that despite our best intentions of finally grasping, say, Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, most of us are quickly brought up short by a snarl of nasty equations or an incomprehensible graph.
Christophe Galfard's mission in life is to spread modern scientific ideas to the general public in entertaining ways. Using his considerable skills as a brilliant theoretical physicist and successful young adult author, The Universe in Your Hand employs the immediacy of simple, direct language to show us, not explain to us, the theories that underpin everything we know about our universe. To understand what happens to a dying star, we are asked to picture ourselves floating in space in front of it. To get acquainted with the quantum world, we are shrunk to the size of an atom and then taken on a journey. Employing everyday similes and metaphors, addressing the reader directly, and writing stories rather than equations renders these astoundingly complex ideas in an immediate and visceral way.
Utterly captivating and entirely unique, The Universe in Your Hand will find its place among other classics in the field
CHRISTOPHE GALFARD holds a PhD. in theoretical physics from Cambridge University. He is coauthor with Stephen Hawking and his daughter on their first YA book, George's Secret Key to the Universe. In the past few years, he has given talks, and written a live show, about our universe attended by more than 130,000 people, of all ages and educational backgrounds.
想法很不错,甚至有时候有在读科幻小说的错觉,代入感强,浅显易懂,缺点也很明显:真的太啰嗦废话太多了。。
评分内容广、浅,语言很繁,介于星空呓语与啰里八嗦间,适合睡前听
评分行程的另一个起点缘于图书馆跟这本书的偶遇,至今仍是我觉得跟图书最美好的一次不期而遇。它陪我度过了好多难忘的夏日时光。我,这本书,整个宇宙,夏日的虫鸣。if there’s one book on the universe you’ve got to read in this lifetime, I can’t think of a better book to recommend.
评分很好看的科普读物,每天读一章,每天都了解宇宙多一点
评分特别适合我这么个非理科的人看,把深奥的理论用易懂的方式讲
看了《三体》之后,突然对理科产生了难以想象的兴趣,连着又读了好几本科幻小说,仔细想来最后应该是《看海的人》让我坚定了先学基本知识的心,不然读起来真的是特别费劲。从《七堂极简物理课》开始,每读一本,每接触一本,就更喜欢更疯狂。因为我体会到了美感,特别是当科学...
评分特意读完两天来写书评,想看看这本书到底给我留下了怎样的印象。我在一个人散步时思考了这个问题,让我印象最深刻的是我们到目前为止只认识了这个世界的5%,又一次感到这个宇宙的宏大与奇妙。量子世界、最后临界散射面、可见宇宙的边缘、奇点(黑洞)所有这些都令我感兴趣,这...
评分作者和译者最后都很负责又客观的把你从这场华丽壮观的旅行中拖回现实世界,尤其最后译后记中译者写到提醒读者不要产生人生消极的情绪并保持积极乐观的心态,还有要看到科学事业美丽面纱背后的艰苦与付出的代价,不要轻易做出从事科学工作的这种决定,尤其是对于要准备参加高考...
