Reviews
"A splendid and invigorating read . . . Across three hundred pages, he fans out the fabric of our present understanding, deftly untangling then interweaving the science of everything from black holes to quanta to DNA, tracing how matter made mind made imagination, probing the pull of eternity and storytelling and the sublime." --Maria Popova, Brain Pickings " Until the End of Time is encyclopedic in its ambition and its erudition, often heartbreaking . . . A love letter to the ephemeral cosmic moment when everything is possible." --Dennis Overbye, The New York Times Book Review "Ambitious and utterly readable . . . [Greene] weaves personal stories, scientific ideas, concepts and facts into a delightful tapestry . . . What is remarkable about Mr. Greene's book is how he has delved into deep questions that not only have no simple answers but may never be settled at all." --Priyamvada Natarajan , The Wall Street Journal "There's tremendous joy in witnessing a brilliant and curious mind wrestle with such profound issues. [Greene] takes readers on a remarkable journey." --John Keogh , Booklist "Packed with ideas . . . There is an echo of philosopher Henry David Thoreau in Greene's account of lying out at night, enraptured by the aurora borealis. And essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson's declaration that the "sublime laws play indifferently through atoms and galaxies" could almost be this book's epigraph. Such qualities lift this work above many accounts of the cosmic story." --Philip Ball, Nature "[Greene] weaves a rich tapestry of theories and perspectives as he navigates space and time . . . Of course, Until the End of Time can't provide all the answers. But you would be hard-pressed to find another book that seeks to do so with the same clarity and meaning." -- Gege Li, New Scientist "Accessible and illuminating . . . Curious readers . . . will be richly rewarded by [Greene's] fascinating exploration." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Engaging . . . An insightful history of everything that simplifies its complex subject as much as possible but no further." -- Kirkus, "A splendid and invigorating read . . . [Greene] fans out the fabric of our present understanding, deftly untangling then interweaving the science of everything from black holes to quanta to DNA, tracing how matter made mind made imagination, probing the pull of eternity and storytelling and the sublime." --Maria Popova, Brain Pickings " Until the End of Time is encyclopedic in its ambition and its erudition, often heartbreaking . . . A love letter to the ephemeral cosmic moment when everything is possible." --Dennis Overbye, The New York Times Book Review "Ambitious and utterly readable . . . [Greene] weaves personal stories, scientific ideas, concepts and facts into a delightful tapestry . . . What is remarkable about Mr. Greene''s book is how he has delved into deep questions that not only have no simple answers but may never be settled at all." --Priyamvada Natarajan , The Wall Street Journal "[Greene] says it all with such ebullience, such ingenuous enthusiasm, that if he told you the whole cold, amoral universe was ending tomorrow you''d roll with it the way he would--as just one more dramatic chapter in an extraordinary tale in which we all have a precious if fleeting role." -- Time "A cracking read. . . . The origins of matter, life and consciousness, and their grisly fate, are laid out here with elegant clarity. If you want to know how everything got here and where it''s going, read this book." -- The Sunday Times (London) "Marvelous. . . . [Greene''s] prose style is one that any novelist would envy. . . . [He] traces a tremendous arc through pretty well everything: a thrilling venture, at once frightening and consolatory." -- The Irish Times "Greene writes beautifully." -- The Courier-Mail (Brisbane) "There''s tremendous joy in witnessing a brilliant and curious mind wrestle with such profound issues. [Greene] takes readers on a remarkable journey." --John Keogh , Booklist "Packed with ideas . . . There is an echo of philosopher Henry David Thoreau in Greene''s account of lying out at night, enraptured by the aurora borealis.

Of course, Until the End of Time can''t provide all the answers. But you would be hard-pressed to find another book that seeks to do so with the same clarity and meaning." -- Gege Li, New Scientist "Brian Greene is a master at elucidating the laws of physics." -- Journal Inquirer (Connecticut) "As well as offering lucid, detailed accouns of the science behind the big bang, the development ofthe cosmos, the emergence of life and human conscoiusness, and the inevitable exeinction of the cosmos, Greene''s treatise is motivated by a personal search for equanimity." -- The Guardian "Mind-bending" --GeekWire "Sentence by sentence, Greene is such a wonderful teacher. . . . When the current hour gets overhwleming . . . it''s a joy to sweep back and forth through the eons. You remember how infinitesimal this moment actually is, and that every second we get to be alive on this planet is an utter gift." --Anthony Doerr, author of All the Light We Cannot See "Greene is an elegant, eloquent writer . . . beautifully written. . . . An energizing, fascinating exploration of origins and endings." -- The Providence Journal "Accessible and illuminating . . . Curious readers . . . will be richly rewarded by [Greene''s] fascinating exploration." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Engaging . . . An insightful history of everything that simplifies its complex subject as much as possible but no further." -- Kirkus

- r***1 (177)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++
- 4***1 (1637)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoBook arrived quickly and is pretty close to "Very Good" description. Value priced and I'm glad I made the purchase as this is an excellent read. However, the book was mailed loose inside an over-sized plastic bag without any protection. Wrapped in a bubble wrap jacket would be a big help. A book can take a beating in USPS transit without some buffer. I can't tell if the bumps and dings were original or occurred in transit. I'd prefer to pay for shipping than have it sent with no protection.
