"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
＃阅读打卡＃《极简宇宙史》 克里斯托弗·加尔法德 计划阅读570min，实际阅读295min，完成100% 摘录： 每次你利用GPS确定自己的位置时，不管是智能手机里的GPS还是车里的GPS,它们都考虑了地球周围空间与时问弯曲的效应。离地面越近，弯曲程度越大不仅在空间上如此，在时间上也...
评分作者和译者最后都很负责又客观的把你从这场华丽壮观的旅行中拖回现实世界，尤其最后译后记中译者写到提醒读者不要产生人生消极的情绪并保持积极乐观的心态，还有要看到科学事业美丽面纱背后的艰苦与付出的代价，不要轻易做出从事科学工作的这种决定，尤其是对于要准备参加高考...
评分翻开这本书，开头是这样写的：夏夜，你躺在沙滩上，仰望星空。一颗小小的流星安静划过，还来不及许愿，不可思议的事情发生了：你一下子穿越50亿年，走进时光的旅行……如果说这本书有什么特别之处，希望我这么形容不会让你觉得过分：他站在英式的严谨里，用美式的幽默，写出了...
评分真的太好看了，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...
评分特意读完两天来写书评，想看看这本书到底给我留下了怎样的印象。我在一个人散步时思考了这个问题，让我印象最深刻的是我们到目前为止只认识了这个世界的5％，又一次感到这个宇宙的宏大与奇妙。量子世界、最后临界散射面、可见宇宙的边缘、奇点（黑洞）所有这些都令我感兴趣，这...
用户评价
行程的另一个起点缘于图书馆跟这本书的偶遇，至今仍是我觉得跟图书最美好的一次不期而遇。它陪我度过了好多难忘的夏日时光。我，这本书，整个宇宙，夏日的虫鸣。if there’s one book on the universe you’ve got to read in this lifetime, I can’t think of a better book to recommend.
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
评分特别适合我这么个非理科的人看，把深奥的理论用易懂的方式讲
