Reviews
"Clear, concise and accessible. And he leavens it further with occasional wry humor."-St Louis Post-Dispatch "Provocative and informed ... plenty of comprehensible analogies and no small amount of humor, often self-deprecating.... Best of all, the book is liberally sprinkled with well-conceived, gorgeously rendered and frequently whimsical illustrations."-Time, "Clear, concise and accessible. And he leavens it further with occasional wry humor."- St Louis Post-Dispatch "Provocative and informed ... plenty of comprehensible analogies and no small amount of humor, often self-deprecating....

Best of all, the book is liberally sprinkled with well-conceived, gorgeously rendered and frequently whimsical illustrations." - Time magazine Acclaim for A Brief History of Time: "Lively and provocative ... Hawking clearly possesses a natural teacher's gifts - easy, good-natured humor and an ability to illustrate highly complex propositions with analogies plucked from daily life." - The New York Times "This book marries a child's wonder to a genius' intellect. We journey into Hawking's universe, while marvelling at his mind." - The Sunday Times (London) "A masterful summary of what physicists now think the world is made of and how it got that way." - The Wall Street Journal "Charming and lucid ... gives the general reader an opportunity to learn some deep science from the source.... [A book of] sunny brilliance." - The New Yorker "Stephen Hawking proves himself to be a master of clarity.... It's difficult to think of anyone else living who could have put these mathematically formidable subjects more clearly." - Chicago Tribune "He can explain the complexities of cosmological physics with an engaging combination of clarity and wit." - The New York Review of Books "Probably the best single book on astrophysics for the common reader. Thank you, Dr. Hawking!" - Booklist From the Hardcover edition.

Synopsis
Stephen Hawking's phenomenal, multimillion-copy bestseller, A Brief History of Time , introduced the ideas of this brilliant theoretical physicist to readers all over the world. Now, in a major publishing event, Hawking returns with a lavishly illustrated sequel that unravels the mysteries of the major breakthroughs that have occurred in the years since the release of his acclaimed first book. The Universe in a Nutshell - Quantum mechanics - M-theory - General relativity - 11-dimensional supergravity - 10-dimensional membranes - Superstrings - P-branes - Black holes One of the most influential thinkers of our time, Stephen Hawking is an intellectual icon, known not only for the adventurousness of his ideas but for the clarity and wit with which he expresses them. In this new book Hawking takes us to the cutting edge of theoretical physics, where truth is often stranger than fiction, to explain in laymen's terms the principles that control our universe. Like many in the community of theoretical physicists, Professor Hawking is seeking to uncover the grail of science -- the elusive Theory of Everything that lies at the heart of the cosmos. In his accessible and often playful style, he guides us on his search to uncover the secrets of the universe -- from supergravity to supersymmetry, from quantum theory to M-theory, from holography to duality. He takes us to the wild frontiers of science, where superstring theory and p-branes may hold the final clue to the puzzle. And he lets us behind the scenes of one of his most exciting intellectual adventures as he seeks "to combine Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and Richard Feynman's idea of multiple histories into one complete unified theory that will describe everything that happens in the universe." With characteristic exuberance, Professor Hawking invites us to be fellow travelers on this extraordinary voyage through space-time. Copious four-color illustrations help clarify this journey into a surreal wonderland where particles, sheets, and strings move in eleven dimensions; where black holes evaporate and disappear, taking their secret with them; and where the original cosmic seed from which our own universe sprang was a tiny nut. The Universe in a Nutshell is essential reading for all of us who want to understand the universe in which we live. Like its companion volume, A Brief History of Time , it conveys the excitement felt within the scientific community as the secrets of the cosmos reveal themselves., Stephen Hawking's phenomenal, multimillion-copy bestseller, A Brief History of Time , introduced the ideas of this brilliant theoretical physicist to readers all over the world.

Seller needs to would include more item-specific details in describing a specific title and an actual photo of the actual item. Buying a used book should not feel like taking a gamble. I was able to remove library stickers without damage. Coupon offer is appreciated. Book shipped fast and arrived quickly.
