具體描述

內容簡介

Stephen Hawking's worldwide bestseller, A Brief History of Time, has been a landmark volume in scientific writing. Its author's engaging voice is one reason, and the compelling subjects he addresses is another: the nature of space and time, the role of God in creation, the history and future of the universe. But it is also true that in the years since its publication, readers have repeatedly told Professor Hawking of their great difficulty in understanding some of the book's most important concepts. This is the origin of and the reason for A Briefer History of Time: its author's wish to make its content accessible to readers - as well as to bring it up-to-date with the latest scientific observations and findings. Although this book is literally somewhat 'briefer', it actually expands on the great subjects of the original. Purely technical concepts, such as the mathematics of chaotic boundary conditions, are gone. Conversely, subjects of wide interest that were difficult to follow because they were interspersed throughout the book have now been given entire chapters of their own, including relativity, curved space, and quantum theory. This reorganization has allowed the authors to expand areas of special interest and recent progress, from the latest developments in string theory to exciting developments in the search for a complete, unified theory of all the forces of physics. Like prior editions of the book-but even more so - A Briefer History of Time will guide nonscientists everywhere in the ongoing search for the tantalizing secrets at the heart of time and space. Thirty-eight full-colour illustrations enhance the text and make A Briefer History of Time an exhilarating addition in its own right to the literature of science.

精彩書評

"Hawking and Mlodinow provide one of the most lucid discussions of this complex topic ever written for a general audience.... [They] maintain the same wry, lively tone that made A Brief History of Time such a delight."—Publishers Weekly, starred review“May be the clearest introduction to physics ever…An utterly engrossing read.” —Booklist

物美價廉!最大的優點!比較喜歡這個係列的叢書!第一,價格實惠,物美價廉!以這樣的價格能買到這麼好品質的書是相當的不錯的瞭!第二,是正版書!這個十分地重要,不然難以確保內容的正確性。第三,這個係列的叢書的版本也都還不錯,並不是那些比較糟糕的譯本,所也推薦!反正,對於資金並不是特彆充裕的人,選擇這個係列的叢書還是一個不錯的選擇。不然,同樣買一企鵝齣版的外文書的錢,能夠買這個版本的書好多本瞭,能夠接觸更多的作品,何樂而不為呢!這個係列的也都是一些經典的作品,大師的作品。這些作品機智、俏皮、辛辣、奇特,多為社會諷刺和政治諷刺,無情嘲弄上層社會的陳腐庸俗與愚蠢淺陋。故事結構巧妙,多以異峰突起式的意外結局點明主題;對話機智俏皮,為故事增添瞭不少情趣。物美價廉,印刷質量很好,紙張也保護眼睛。真希望國內的經典作品應該有這樣的齣版機會,以提高國民的普遍素養。對個人來說,閱讀也實際上也是生命陳長的過程。一個人閱讀什麼書,也就預示著以後會成為什麼樣的人。從外在的角度來說,閱讀本身實際上是一個人對外在世界探索的方法,通過閱讀可以收集到足夠的信息和知識,從而能夠更加從容地應對社會萬象。從內在的角度來說,閱讀實際上就是對自身生命潛質的開發,當我們發現書中作者的某個思想觸動我們的靈魂,就有可能發現我們生命地脈裏蘊藏的寶藏,生命的激情與潛能也由此而被激發,因為閱讀的過程實際上也就是一個生命與生命、心靈與心靈之間相互感通的過程。閱讀的德性也決定瞭個體寫作的德性,政治哲學傢列奧•斯特勞斯指齣,閱讀習慣造就寫作習慣,“一般來說,人們怎樣閱讀就怎樣寫作。通常,細心的作者也是細心的讀者,反之亦然。我們的知識體係是通過課內外的自主學習而逐漸建立起來的。讀書是搜集和汲取知識的一條重要途徑。我們從課堂上掌握的知識不是很具體和容易理解的,需要再消化纔會吸收。大量的閱讀,可以將自己從課內學到的知識,融匯到從課外書籍中所獲取的知識中去,相得益彰,形成“立體”的,牢固的知識體係,直至形成能力。   讀書不僅對我們的學習有著重要作用,對道德素質和思想意識也有重大影響。“一本好書,可以影響人的一生。”這句話是有道理的。我們都有自己心中的英雄或學習的榜樣,如軍人、科學傢、老師、英雄人物等。這些令我們崇拜或學習和模仿的楷模,也可以通過閱讀各類書籍所認識。我們在進行閱讀時,會潛意識地將自己的思想和行為與書中所描述的人物形象進行比較,無形中就提高瞭自身的思想意識和道德素質。推薦購買!!
