Astronomer Silk's command of particle physics is shaky; he makes a hash of the hadron/baryon terminology and wrongly says that the weak interaction is stronger than electromagnetism. Still, this is another of the many good books on cosmology (in the golden age of which we are privileged to live). What a pity that 99+ percent of the populace will never read any of them.  fpagan | Oct 25, 2006 |   sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Amazon.com (ISBN 0716760207, Paperback)Most cosmology books are woefully lacking in illustrations, which is odd considering how our information about the universe is visual. Not so A Short History of the Universe, which continues Scientific American Library's policy of providing clear, authoritative, beautifully illustrated surveys of important topics. Joseph Silk is one of the most influential cosmologists, and he leads us on a tour of the universe with enough pictures, graphs, and equations that we can actually get an idea of what astrophysicists think is going on. Nature calls this book "the best introduction to cosmology for the general public."(retirado da Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:19 -0400) A primeira ronda de testes foi já encerrada.
