Sinossi
Imagine if The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy were a real, practical book about the mysteries of the universe . . . The Universe in Your Hand takes us on a wonder-filled journey to the surface of our dying Sun, shrinks us to the size of an atom and puts us in the deathly grip of distant Black Holes. Along the way you might come to understand, really understand, the mind-bending science that underpins modern life, from Quantum Mechanics to Einstein's theory of General Relativity. Through brilliant storytelling and humour rather than graphs and equations, internationally renowned astrophysicist Christophe Galfard has written an instant classic that brings the astonishing beauty of the universe to life - and takes us deep into questions about the beginning of time and the future of humanity.

He is the author of three novels and was co-author with Stephen Hawking and his daughter of their first YA novel, which has now been sold in more than 45 territories. Christophe now devotes his time to spreading modern scientific knowledge to the general public, and is a regular contributor to French TV and radio shows.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. As he sets off to conduct a journey through the universe, the astrophysicist Christophe Galfard aims to 'not leave any readers behind' and promises to use only one equation (E=mc²). In a widely acclaimed, non-scientists' introduction to modern physics and cosmology, Galfard uses humour, storytelling and thought experiments to make concepts such as electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, general relativity and black holes intelligible to all of us.
