Review # 1 was written on 2013-01-04 00:00:00 Lynn Collis This was a great book. We cannot surely know for sure which the end of the universe will be yet, but Paul Davies does a great job explaining the possible scenarios and describing the processes behind them. Of course, by reading so many science books, some ideas were repeated, for exemple a great deal of stuff explained by Stephen Hawking în his books, but the book is well structured and follows a good path în logic. The author manages to explain very well some quantum principles (Heisenberg uncertainity principle, quantum tunnelling, etc), elementary black hole theory ( for ex. Hawking radiation), or baby universes. "Maybe all we can hope for is that our ancestors will get to know the meaning of the Universe before the end of the last three minutes."

Review # 2 was written on 2016-04-10 00:00:00 Jared Nagel At first I scoffed, because, hey, you don't need to explain how gravitational lensing works to ME. But even when he was telling me something he knew, he was so overly dramatic as to elicit glee. And by the time he was throwing out calculations as to how to build a superbeing that can overcome the burning inferno of the final contraction of the universe, I had already regained my failing libido, and more.
