Review # 1 was written on 2014-05-25 00:00:00 Steve Govora One of the better popular-science books I've ever read, and certainly the best I've read recently. Well written, engaging, and well-referenced, it not only improved my understanding of General Relativity, but made the very concept of time—both in terms of the experience of its flow and it's scientific sense as a dimension of unified spacetime—both clearer and more diffuse: what is time after all? How can it even be defined in any meaningful way? These questions may seem ridiculous on their face, as time is measured by every clock. But what exactly is that clock measuring, and how? Once you start scratching at that surface understanding, one finds rather little substance holding it up. Naturally, I will go on to use this as a further justification of my habit of procrastination. Eventually. |
Review # 2 was written on 2014-05-13 00:00:00 Girlie Viray After reading this book, I seriously got the feeling that my brain has worn make-up!! If you are looking for a reference to understand the big bang theory, black holes, spacetime ...etc .. this book is a great start for you! It is such an informative book and it's formulated to be understood by non-specialists. |
