A rhymed view of the interrelatedness and belonging of all things and creatures in the universe, from the stars, to the sea, to a mouse, to a child.

"Since the introduction of printing in 15th century Europe, Western science has become increasingly mechanized, both in its conception and its application to the world. But sadly, that mechanical development has come to be increasingly one-sided. Our modern sciences are thus now excessively mechanical. They overemphasize the use of external instruments and machines, in the pursuit of narrowly material objects. And they tend to neglect the education...

An introduction to the universe covering everything from the big bang and our understanding of the universe over time, to the earth's formation, the Sun and how it affects us, the Moon and planets, black holes and galaxies. The companion volume to 'Need to Know? Stargazing' and by the same author, this book focuses on the basic history and science of the universe, rather than on the practical skywatching aspects. It includes information on: •...

Does the universe consist of independent objects, or is it a single unit? Are some of its features accidental, or can they all be explained in theoretical terms? This accessible book on cosmology addresses profound questions about the universe, and it offers elegant answers in simple, straightforward terms. Written by a distinguished cosmologist, it assumes no knowledge of physics or astronomy and illustrates its explanations with figures and compelling...

¿Qué diferencia hay entre cosmología y cosmogonía? ¿Cómo llegó el agua a la Tierra? ¿Por qué sabemos que nuestro planeta gira alrededor del Sol? ¿Sucedió realmente el Big Bang? ¿Qué es la eclíptica? ¿Qué provoca el fenómeno de las estrellas fugaces? ¿A qué se deben las mareas? ¿Cuál es la cuarta dimensión? ¿Qué es la antimateria? ¿A qué llamamos "tamaño cuántico"? ¿Qué es y para qué sirve un acelerador de partículas? ¿Podremos...

Since time immemorial, people have attempted to explain the origin of the world, from the creation myths of the ancients to the more sophisticated views that developed with the progress of observational astronomy. This lively and authoritative survey by an internationally famous physicist and one of the formulators of the Big Bang theory of cosmology offers captivating perspectives on the births of the galaxies, stars, chemical elements, and planetary...

Summary of The Big Picture by Sean Carroll | Includes Analysis Preview: The Big Picture by Sean Carroll is a scientific exploration of many essential questions of humanity, such as the meaning of life and the origin of the universe, considered from a poetic-naturalist perspective. Poetic naturalism is a way of describing the world that relies on observations and the use of consistent language when describing it. Consistent descriptions of phenomena...
