À propos de cet audio

From award-winning physicist, public intellectual, and the bestselling author of A Universe from Nothing Lawrence Krauss, comes “a masterful blend of history, modern physics, and cosmic perspective that empowers the reader to not only embrace our understanding of the universe, but also revel in what remains to be discovered” (Neil deGrasse Tyson, American Museum of Natural History).

In this grand poetic vision of the universe, Lawrence Krauss tells the dramatic story of the discovery of the hidden world that underlies reality - and our place within it.

Reality is not what you think or sense - it’s weird, wild, and counterintuitive, and its inner workings seem at least as implausible as the idea that something can come from nothing.

With his trademark wit and accessible style, Krauss leads us to realms so small that they are invisible to microscopes, to the birth and rebirth of light, and into the natural forces that govern our existence. His unique blend of rigorous research and engaging storytelling invites us into the lives and minds of remarkable scientists who have helped unravel the unexpected fabric of reality with reasoning rather than superstition and dogma, and to explain how everything we see - and can’t see - came about. A passionate advocate for reason, Krauss gives the rationale for the seemingly irrational - and the mysteries and apparent contradictions of quantum physics, and explores what that means for our lives here on Earth - and beyond.

At its core, The Greatest Story Ever Told - So Far is about the best of what it means to be human - an epic history of our ultimately purposeless universe that addresses the question, “Why are we here?”

Ce que les critiques en disent

"The Greatest Story Ever Told - So Far ranges from Galileo to the LHC and beyond. It's accessible, illuminating, and surprising - an ideal guide for anyone interested in understanding our accidental universe." --Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction

"A rich, definitely not-dumbed-down history of physics.... An admirable complement to the author's previous book and equally satisfying for those willing to read carefully." --Kirkus

"In confident...prose, Krauss tells a story that both celebrates and explores science. Through it, he reminds readers why scientists build such complicated machinery and push the boundaries of the quantum world when nothing makes sense: 'For no more practical reason than to celebrate and explore the beauty of nature.'" --Publishers Weekly

While many of the concepts used in the discussion were above my current knowledge, the story wove together a fascinating glimpse into atomic particle physics in a direct easy to follow way.

Fascinating journey into atomic structure

I was expecting a book explaining in lay terms the complexity of astrophysics, well... this wasn’t the one, it’s very technical, explanations are complex and it gets even worst when the narrator makes reference to PDF graphs that come with the audiobook. So, if you don’t have a good base in physics this book might not be for you.

Interesting but complex

As some have mentioned, this is NOT AN EASY reader. This is a book of science. i would argue it is easy as it can be to explain some very complex ideas. Krauss does a masterful job of making these concepts exciting and gives great examples to help you understand. but as this journey goes through advanced concepts including a lot of Quantum Mechanics, you are sure to need to reread many sections until you have a good sense of what he is explaining before moving on, because those previous concepts will ceryainly be built upon so that you can understand more and more advanced concepts. If learning science, and to a large degree theoretics of science, this is a book for you. if you were looking for a quick summer read to just give a quick overview of something sciency, then you should look elsewhere.

A brilliant book highlighting Science!!!!
