"If Ms. Frizzle were a physics student of Stephen Hawking, she might have written THE UNIVERSE IN YOUR HAND, a wild tour through the reaches of time and space, from the interior of a proton to the Big Bang to the rough suburbs of a black hole. It's friendly, excitable, erudite, and cosmic."
—Jordan Ellenberg, New York Times besteselling author of How Not To Be Wrong
Quantum physics, black holes, string theory, the Big Bang, dark matter, dark energy, parallel universes: even if we are interested in these fundamental concepts of our world, their language is the language of math. Which means that despite our best intentions of finally grasping, say, Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, most of us are quickly brought up short by a snarl of nasty equations or an incomprehensible graph.
Christophe Galfard's mission in life is to spread modern scientific ideas to the general public in entertaining ways. Using his considerable skills as a brilliant theoretical physicist and successful young adult author, The Universe in Your Hand employs the immediacy of simple, direct language to show us, not explain to us, the theories that underpin everything we know about our universe. To understand what happens to a dying star, we are asked to picture ourselves floating in space in front of it. To get acquainted with the quantum world, we are shrunk to the size of an atom and then taken on a journey. Employing everyday similes and metaphors, addressing the reader directly, and writing stories rather than equations renders these astoundingly complex ideas in an immediate and visceral way.
Utterly captivating and entirely unique, The Universe in Your Hand will find its place among other classics in the field

读后感
真的太好看了，不出意外，19年最佳。 时常半夜读着读着会产生一种巨大的恐惧感，一种生而为人的渺小和无力。人类知识的尽头原来就在这里。 我们人类现在所了解到的一切（包括光），只占整个宇宙的4.6%。 眼前的悲喜算什么。太微不足道了。 另外， 地球上的我遭受不快时，无数多...
评分 评分又在偶尔翻看这本书了，依旧那么有趣。下面写于2018年9月。 I’ve never learned how to say a proper goodbye to a once-in-a-lifetime journey (for the obvious reason that you simply don’t get a lot of practices?), a journey that started in such an unremarkable w...
评分 评分等待是一种痛苦的煎熬，也是一份对未来的憧憬。加尔法德写了一本叫《极简宇宙史》的书，他想把这本书送给自己的老师——霍金，他希望借此表达对老师的无限感激之情，同时也渴望这本书能够得到老师的认可，成为其书架上的收藏。 时间一分一秒地静静流逝，加尔法德搅了搅面前的咖...
用户评价
内容广、浅，语言很繁，介于星空呓语与啰里八嗦间，适合睡前听
评分宇宙物理和量子物理集大成
评分很好看的科普读物，每天读一章，每天都了解宇宙多一点
评分很好看的科普读物，每天读一章，每天都了解宇宙多一点
评分用简洁的语言描述量子力学、暗物质暗能量、弦论等耳熟能详但并不理解的概念，作为入门科普读物读起来很流畅，个别专业词需要查资料，用五个月的时间一点点看完，鼓舞了我读英文书的信心。
