Astronomer Silk's command of particle physics is shaky; he makes a hash of the hadron/baryon terminology and wrongly says that the weak interaction is stronger than electromagnetism. Still, this is another of the many good books on cosmology (in the golden age of which we are privileged to live). What a pity that 99+ percent of the populace will never read any of them. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

In this fascinating book, astronomer Joseph Silk explores the Universe from its beginnings to its ultimate fate. He shows how cosmologists study cosmic fossils and relics from the distant past to construct theories of the birth, evolution and future of the Universe. Stars, galaxies, dark matter and dark energy are described, as successive chapters detail the evolution of the Universe from a fraction of a microsecond after the Big Bang. Silk describes how physicists apply theories of subatomic particles to recreate the first moments of the Big Bang, and how astronomers chart the vast depths of space to glimpse how the most distant galaxies formed. He describes the search for dark matter and the dark energy that will determine the ultimate fate of the Universe. This highly readable account will appeal to all those with an interest in the story of the Universe. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
