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."

7.當愛因斯坦說到“上帝不擲骰子”的時候,他錯瞭。鑒於黑洞給予我們的暗示,上帝不僅擲篩子,而且往往將骰子擲到我們看不見的地方以迷惑我們。 6.我注意到就連那些聲稱凡事皆為命中注定、我們無法去做任何改變的人,過馬路的時候時也會一樣的小心翼翼。 5.我的目標很簡單,就...
評分前幾天和朋友聊天,我說現在這個時代就是沒有力量,沒有大哥,隻有妖孽。朋友說或許有大哥我們不知道,也許是吧,不過從科學上來講,這個大哥的存在還沒有被我觀測到,所以,既無法證實,也無法證僞。妖孽的存在倒是隨處可見。 經常性地被一種無邊無際的荒謬感擊中,反復擊中...
評分前兩天看瞭一個關於宇宙大爆炸的紀錄片。 對於質量如果存在仍然有很多的爭論。 但是當你抬頭仰望天空,其實你所看到的就是宇宙的曆史。 宇宙大爆炸其實時時刻刻就發生在你的身邊。 科學離我麼如此之近。 有時間我會再看一遍時間簡史,當年高中時候看,感覺還是讀的一知半解
評分有比光更快的速度麼?有,那就是思速。 這是我編的名詞。大清早,一眼望穿窗外巨大的廣告牌,我的思想可以穿透到宇宙的邊緣,不,宇宙以最近的理論來說,是無邊緣且在膨脹中。那思維可以跟它一起膨脹。沒有人能證實你所想的是對是錯。那完美的想像,隻屬於一個人--你自...

真的很好。就算對物理天文不感興趣也可以一覽
評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!
評分201408,稱其為 the most unread book of all time 是非常有道理的。
評分始自機艙,終至廁所。不容易,總算看完瞭。好書。
