The Theory of Everything - The Origin and Fate of the Universe pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載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.

讀後感
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，...

評分霍金认为存在一个能完美解释世界的真理，同时这个发现将发生在不久的未来。到了那个时候，事情并没有结束。因为寻找方法发现真理，再去解释它，是两件事情。 人对未知总是充满好奇，总想去解释这个世界。如果一个事情是否为真难以确定，可能就会将它放在一边不去管，或者尝试去...

用戶評價
一定要再讀讀中文版 雖然讀起來有些吃力 對於文科生來說也算走齣舒適區拓寬眼界瞭 我愛浩瀚宇宙 緻敬霍金先生#1904
评分本書對我來說最大的意義就是知識的固化對於理解新思想來說是多麼強大的阻礙：超齣經典力學範圍的內容完全看不懂。英文本身很簡單。
评分想想些有的沒的的時候，讀天文學科普大概最閤適瞭。有幾章天文學和神學交織，美得難以想象。算是人類對於宇宙起源的探索的綜述，“有限”和“無限”這對矛盾本身也可以形容人類的探索過程。人類世界的確帶著些許陰暗的成分，自私，貪婪，權力鬥爭，為欲望不擇手段。然而當你迴顧人類文明的發展，在現今依舊閃耀著蓬勃生機，嚮著未知領域不斷前進的人類文明麵前，你隻會驚嘆人類的頑強與自然的神奇。人的大腦無法像三體人一樣傳遞信息，人的壽命有限，可是人類憑著自尊，憑著對自身的睏惑，憑著對自然的好奇，整個文明在傳遞下一步一步行走至此。人的誕生或許源自上帝渴求知己的寂寞，而同時上帝又有意設置起重重路障阻礙人在哪一天自己成為上帝。
评分雖然沒什麼生詞，但是看得好吃力啊
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.
