30-second universe : 50 most significant ideas, theories and events that sum up... everything
Liu, Charles, 1968 April 5-2019
Books
The universe literally encompasses everything we were, are, and will be, everything we knew, know, and can know. When we decide to understand the universe as a whole, new truths come to light, and unexpected perspectives illuminate our take on life. This book explains all the tantalising concepts, principles, and theories that make up our knowledge - the Higgs particle, gluons, quarks, the multiverse, how certainty itself can be uncertain, and of course, where our world came from, and where we're going and what will happen in the end - and it explains these astrophysical answers succinctly, each entry taking only 30 seconds to read, with further exploration flagged, and key scientists noted. This one small book sheds light on the biggest ideas, concepts, and discoveries in life, in the universe, in everything.
