A Brief History of Time (Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow)

I was really amazed with “The Universe in Nutshell” so I decided to try another (more actual) book of S. Hawking. I hope it will be at least as good as the previous one.

Contents:

  1. Thinking About the Universe
  2. Our Evolving Picture of the Universe
  3. The Nature of a Scientific Theory
  4. Newton’s Universe
  5. Relativity
  6. Curved Space
  7. The Expanding Universe
  8. The Big Bang, Black Holes, and the Evolution of the Universe
  9. Quantum Gravity
  10. Wormholes and Time Travel
  11. The Forces of Nature and the Unification of Physics
  12. Conclusions
The Universe in a nutshell (Stephen Hawking) Really good reading and introduction to theoretical physics and the “unified theory of everything”. FYI now I can remeber: Newtons view of universe Uncertainty principle Special theory of relativity General theory of relativity Finite time M-Theory and world seen as p-branes Black holes have no hair :D

The Universe in a nutshell (Stephen Hawking)

Really good reading and introduction to theoretical physics and the “unified theory of everything”.

FYI now I can remeber:

  • Newtons view of universe
  • Uncertainty principle
  • Special theory of relativity
  • General theory of relativity
  • Finite time
  • M-Theory and world seen as p-branes
  • Black holes have no hair :D
