کتاب پس از نخستین سه دقیقه،شما رو به عالم آغازین کیهان میبرد،جایی که بیگ بنگ (مهبانگ) آغاز میشود، از تمام جزئیاتی که تاکنون کشف و دیده شده،نوشته میشه.با اینکه کمی پیچیده س اما برای علاقمندان به شناخت جهان عالم جذاب و هیجان انگیزه. این کتاب بدون معادلات پیچیده ی ریاضی سعی داره بگه که کهکشان ها و ستارها و منظومه ها چگونه بوجود آمدند.
کتابی که تا پایانش در آسمانها و شاهد ساخته شدن کیهان هستید‌.

Deep and mysterious.

I can not follow the math.

But the big bang did happen.

An overview of what we know (or what we knew in 1998) about the creation of the universe, galaxies, stars, etc. Written in a style that contains the scientific jargon without the technical mathematics or background, this is an interesting read for an appropriate audience. People without a university level background in some science might find it too dense and full of jargon whereas someone with a good knowledge of physics might find it too simplistic. I wouldn't recommend this book to everyone, but to someone in my position (college-level science classes but no background in advanced physics) I think this book is a good fit.

The first few chapters, which contained a very accelerated background in basic physics, were a little painful as the author did his best to cram everything he thought a lay reader would need to understand the book in a condensed form. As I made my through this overly detailed and only somewhat unilluminating section, I considered giving up this book despite its short length. However, the book really hit its stride in chapter 4 when the subject switched from a crash course in introductory physics to cosmology. The rest of the book flowed beautifully and clearly, carrying the reader across about red shifts, quasars, star / galaxy / supercluster formation and the evidence for dark matter and its form.

Quite scientific yet very lucid explanation of the origination of the Universe and the formation of stars and galaxies. Insights into scientific theory and discoveries that led to the current understanding.
