After the first three minutes: the story of our universe (paper) The Story of Our Universe

Langue : Anglais
Couverture de l’ouvrage After the first three minutes: the story of our universe (paper)
Where Steven Weinberg's classic The First Three Minutes left off, Padmanabhan picks up the exciting story. How did our Universe evolve? And how did structures like stars and galaxies form? In recent years, scientists' understanding of these profound questions has developed enormously. This book presents a clear picture of cosmology for the general reader. Unlike existing popular books on cosmology, After The First Three Minutes does not gloss over details, nor shy away from explaining the underlying concepts. Instead, with a clear, informal style and avoiding all mathematics, the author introduces all the relevant background and then carefully pieces together an engaging story of the evolution of our Universe. For general readers who want to get to grips with what we really do and don't know about our Universe, this book provides an exciting and uncompromising read.
