520 "The essential universe, from our most celebrated and
beloved astrophysicist. What is the nature of space and
time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the
universe fit within us? There's no better guide through
these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed
astrophysicist and best-selling author Neil deGrasse
Tyson. But today, few of us have time to contemplate the
cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth
succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in tasty
chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day.
While you wait for your morning coffee to brew, for the
bus, the train, or a plane to arrive, Astrophysics for
People in a Hurry will reveal just what you need to be
fluent and ready for the next cosmic headlines: from the
Big Bang to black holes, from quarks to quantum mechanics,
and from the search for planets to the search for life in
the universe"--|cProvided by publisher.
