In The Universe, renowned physicist Sean Carroll offers a compelling, accessible guide to the principles underlying the great scientific revolutions—from Darwin to Einstein. With characteristic clarity, he reveals how the incredible discoveries of the last century have reshaped our understanding of the world.
What is life, and what is death? What is our place in this immense cosmos? Carroll explores these questions across quantum, cosmic, and human scales, showing how universal values connect to science.
Fourteen billion years have passed since the Big Bang. The observable universe contains hundreds of billions of galaxies, each averaging one hundred billion stars. Against this backdrop, a human being is smaller than an atom is to Earth.
We are tiny; the universe is vast. And there is no instruction manual for understanding it. Yet, remarkably, we have learned an extraordinary amount about how everything around us is put together. This book is an invitation to share in that wonder.
