具體描述
A journey through the otherworldly science behind Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film, Interstellar, from executive producer and theoretical physicist Kip Thorne.
Interstellar, from acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan, takes us on a fantastic voyage far beyond our solar system. Yet in The Science of Interstellar, Kip Thorne, the physicist who assisted Nolan on the scientific aspects of Interstellar, shows us that the movie’s jaw-dropping events and stunning, never-before-attempted visuals are grounded in real science. Thorne shares his experiences working as the science adviser on the film and then moves on to the science itself. In chapters on wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and much more, Thorne’s scientific insights—many of them triggered during the actual scripting and shooting of Interstellar—describe the physical laws that govern our universe and the truly astounding phenomena that those laws make possible.

用戶評價
##還算有趣的follow-up reading.
評分##這不是科普書，是一本嚴肅的科學文獻，對讀者要求高，需要過硬的數學物理知識。所以反而沒瞭讀懂的壓力，除瞭迷人的teserract（超立方體）章節讀得仔細，其餘暢快的瀏覽。推薦邊觀影邊讀，啓示：科學怎麼對視效妥協，如把無法視覺化的高維用三維來達意和講故事。
評分##神一樣的電影背後神一樣的書，雖然為瞭娛樂效果做瞭很多退讓。有些地方沒看懂，以後買瞭紙質書再看。最後還有每章的推薦閱讀好貼心~I love Kip Thorne！
評分##平易近人。與Kip Thorne可算是"相逢恨晚"瞭 :)
評分##感到智商受瞭碾壓。評分這麼高，諸位想必都是看懂瞭的。最後鬥膽揣測一下，Kip Thorne寫這本書感覺像是在說，“看吧我在電影裏應用的科學理論和假設都是高大上並且準確的你們看不懂電影就來看書看不懂書那我也沒轍瞭反正我就是好萊塢最屌的物理學傢[攤手]”。
評分##第一次發現物理這麼有趣，可惜詞匯量太少，書中很多物理詞匯，比較難。跳著看完瞭。
