Veliki prasak: najvažnije znanstveno otkriće svih vremena i zašto ga moramo poznavati

Simon Singh

Simon Singh, author of Fermat's Last Theorem and The Book of Ciphers, presents us with nothing less than the story of the Big Bang. The book in an excellent translation by Predrag Raos.

Albert Einstein once said, "The most incomprehensible thing about the cosmos is that it is comprehensible." Simon Singh believes that geniuses like Einstein are not the only ones who can understand the physics that describes our universe. We all can. In addition to explaining what the Big Bang theory actually is, this book also reveals why cosmologists believe that it provides an accurate description of the origin of the universe. Also, the book contains stories about brilliant and eccentric scientists who fought against the prevailing idea of ​​an eternal unchanging cosmos.

Simon Singh, known for clearly presenting ideas that otherwise seem difficult to understand, is the ideal guide on this journey through the cosmos. Everyone has heard of the Big Bang Theory, but who among us can claim to understand this theory? In his usual clear style and narration peppered with anecdotes and personal stories of those who have tried to understand the origin of the world, Simon Singh has written a book about the most important theory of all time.
