The Theory of Everything - The Origin and Fate of the Universe pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Physicist Stephen Hawking suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. The condition has progressed to the point where he can no longer speak for himself. Hawking, therefore, uses a voice synthesizer to deliver this series of popular lectures on black holes, current physics theories, and the nature of time and space. The synthesizer paces sentences oddly and slurs an occasional word; Hawking jokes about being unable to get rid of its American accent. However, listeners will soon adapt to the oddities of delivery, and once they do, will find themselves inspired by the sweep and clarity of Hawking's mind, and by his warmth and bravery.

With a title inspired as much by Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker series as Einstein, The Theory of Everything delivers almost as much as it promises. Transcribed from Stephen Hawking's Cambridge Lectures, the slim volume may not present a single theory unifying gravity with the other fundamental forces, but it does carefully explain the state of late 20th-century physics with the great scientist's characteristic humility and charm. Explicitly shunning math, Hawking explains the fruits of 100 years of heavy thinking with metaphors that are simple but never condescending--he compares the settling of the newborn universe into symmetry to the formation of ice crystals in a glass of water, for example. While he explores his own work (especially when speaking about black holes), he also discusses the important milestones achieved by others like Richard Feynman. Though occasionally an impenetrably obscure phrase does slip by, the reader will find the bulk of the text enlightening and engaging. The material, from the nature of time to the possibility that the universe has no beginning or end, is rich and deep and inevitably ignites metaphysical thinking. After all, Hawking is famous for his "we would know the mind of God" remark, which ends the final lecture herein. --Rob Lightner --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

评分说出来我自己都不信，这居然是我认真读完的第一本霍金的著作——要知道，他成名很久了。想想原因，一是曾经也看过《时间简史》，看了没多久看不下去了，有点难懂，就放弃了；二是当时兴趣也不大，没有看下去的动力，当然这是最主要的。 而现在为什么能看完呢，一是得益于大刘，...

Probably the last book finished within this year. What is a string theory?
评分这是我第一次完整地读完一本英文书，虽然可能是简化版本，然而还是很有成就感。 我经常会因为文中的某些话陷入无穷无尽的遐想（瞎想），这是很愉快的体验。 人类是如此渺小，宇宙是如此浩瀚无穷让人沉迷，琢磨不透。然而想到世界上还有那么多人为金钱名利地位而虚伪地挣扎着生活就觉得很可悲。希望我们都可以按照自己喜欢的样子让短暂的一生更愉快和更有意义：）
评分Probably the last book finished within this year. What is a string theory?
评分This, "The theory of Everything", is quite interesting, which demonstrates not only the development of universe theories in which almost all the famous physicists, from Aristole to Einstein and Stephen Hawking himself, were involved, but also the thought-provoking ideas, although some parts of it are beyond understanding.
评分一定要再读读中文版 虽然读起来有些吃力 对于文科生来说也算走出舒适区拓宽眼界了 我爱浩瀚宇宙 致敬霍金先生#1904
