翻开这本书,开头是这样写的:夏夜,你躺在沙滩上,仰望星空。一颗小小的流星安静划过,还来不及许愿,不可思议的事情发生了:你一下子穿越50亿年,走进时光的旅行……如果说这本书有什么特别之处,希望我这么形容不会让你觉得过分:他站在英式的严谨里,用美式的幽默,写出了...
评分这不是一篇书评。 · 前天晚上和爸爸妈妈一起散步的时候,爸爸说,你不要总是和妈妈吵架,妈妈那么爱你,比我还爱你,你是妈妈身上掉下的一块肉呀。 我忽然就想起极简宇宙史里的一段话 “大概四十亿年前,我们年轻的行星与另一颗行星撞在一起,后者大概有火星那么大,这次撞击...

"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
