À propos de cet audio

 A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK * AN NPR SCIENCE FRIDAY BOOK CLUB SELECTION* NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST, THE ECONOMIST, NEW SCIENTIST, PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, and THE GUARDIAN

From the cohost of the podcast The Universe with John Green and one of the most dynamic stars in astrophysics, an “engrossing, elegant” (The New York Times) look at five ways the universe could end, and the mind-blowing lessons each scenario reveals about the most important concepts in cosmology.

We know the universe had a beginning. With the Big Bang, it expanded from a state of unimaginable density to an all-encompassing cosmic fireball to a simmering fluid of matter and energy, laying down the seeds for everything from black holes to one rocky planet orbiting a star near the edge of a spiral galaxy that happened to develop life as we know it. But what happens to the universe at the end of the story? And what does it mean for us now?

Dr. Katie Mack has been contemplating these questions since she was a young student, when her astronomy professor informed her the universe could end at any moment, in an instant. This revelation set her on the path toward theoretical astrophysics. Now, with lively wit and humor, she takes us on a mind-bending tour through five of the cosmos’s possible finales: the Big Crunch, Heat Death, the Big Rip, Vacuum Decay (the one that could happen at any moment!), and the Bounce. Guiding us through cutting-edge science and major concepts in quantum mechanics, cosmology, string theory, and much more, The End of Everything is a wildly fun, surprisingly upbeat ride to the farthest reaches of all that we know.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"While forecasting the death of the universe may seem morbid, this audiobook, written by astrophysicist Katie Mack and narrated primarily by Gabra Zackman, is surprisingly fun and informative. Mack delivers the introduction, in which she introduces listeners to her field of study, along with some of its basic concepts and terminology. Mack's enthusiasm and wry sense of humor set the tone for the rest of the audiobook. Zackman then delivers the five major theories on how the universe could end. . . . [She] channels Mack's personality while leading listeners on a jaunty tour of the astrophysical end of everything."

I hope Katie writes more. I read books on this topic and this one is better than most. At some point I will reread this one and will certainly be anxious for her next.

Enjoyed every word

The content was really interesting but the narrator switch after chapter 1 was a bit jarring. I've heard Katie speak in other podcasts and like her style, so having someone else narrate felt awkward and impersonal.
I would've preferred if she narrated the entire audiobook.

Really informative but narration could've been better

A wonderfully entertaining read delivered with wit and insight. It's refreshing to think about an apocalypse happening billions of years in the future, for once.

A wonderfully entertaining read!

This book could be named “The End of the Universe For Dummies” because it can be easily understood by anyone without any sort of physics or cosmology background. Someone like me. Books like this make complex science topics accessible for everyone!

Dr. Mack takes what should be an extremely complex, terrifying & depressing topic, and manages to turn it around into something easily understood, humorous & inspiring. Yes, the book can be absolutely terror inducing (don’t read right before trying to sleep if existential crisis are not your idea of fun), but Dr. Mack has a way of bringing awe to the forefront with a dash of witty humor I would never have otherwise associated with an Astrophysicist.

When I finished the book I felt a profound sense of contentment. That my life really can mean something because it means something to me NOW. I felt inspired. Uplifted. Compelled to do more with my finite time. This actually changed my outlook on life in a very positive way. And yet, the book was about the ways the Universe could end (to which it will end somehow), quite permanently.

Thank you Dr. Mack for this gift of a book to us lowkey science nerds who just don’t get the math parts.

Not a bad overview of "cosmic eschatology" by any means, but not particularly rigorous or exploratory of the possibility space. You will get more out of reading every topic-relevant page of Wikipedia or watching YouTube videos that go into better (and visual) detail. And since both of those resources are free...

The narrator was good. Chuckled a few times, Katie has a decent sense of humour.

Decent Overview But Not Particularly Detailed
