A Brief History of Time (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780553176988) Hawking, Stephen W. Quantity Available: 10
Book Description: Transworld Publishers Ltd, United Kingdom, 2001. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 179 x 108 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. In the ten years since its publication in 1988, Stephen Hawking's classic work has become a landmark volume in scientific writing, with more than nine million copies in forty languages sold worldwide. That edition was on the cutting edge of what was then known about the origins and nature of the universe. But the intervening years have seen extraordinary advances in the technology of observing both the micro- and the macrocosmic worlds. These observations have confirmed many of Professor Hawking's theoretical predictions in the first edition of his book, including the recent discoveries of the Cosmic Background Explorer satellite (COBE), which probed back in time to within 300,000 years of the universe's beginning and revealed wrinkles in the fabric of space-time that he had projected. Eager to bring to his original text the new knowledge revealed by these observations, as well as his own recent research, Professor Hawking has prepared a new introduction to the book, written an entirely new chapter on wormholes and time travel, and updated the chapters throughout.

Book Description: Bantam Books Random House Uk. Taschenbuch. Book Condition: Neu. 18 cm. - Stephen Hawking, geboren 1942 in Oxford, Großbritannien ist Astrophysiker und seit 1979 Inhaber des Lucasischen Lehrstuhls für Mathematik und Theoretische Physik an der Universität Cambridge, den einst auch Sir Isaac Newton inne hatte. Er lieferte bedeutende Arbeiten zur Kosmologie, wobei seine Forschung vor allem auf dem Gebiet der Physik der Schwarzen Löcher angesiedelt ist. 1963 wurde bei Hawking Amyotrophe Lateralsklerose (ALS) diagnostiziert und er ist seit 1968 auf einen Rollstuhl angewiesen. Durch einen Luftröhrenschnitt 1985 verlor er die Fähigkeit zu sprechen und ist für die verbale Kommunikation auf die Benutzung eines Sprachcomputers angewiesen. Stephen Hawking veröffentlichte seit den 70er Jahren zahlreiche wissenschaftliche Werke und zählt zu den weltweit renommiertesten Wissenschaftlern, die auf dem Gebiet der Astrophysik forschen. Durch Eine kurze Geschichte der Zeit ist er auch einem breiten Publikum außerhalb der Fachwelt bekannt geworden. 211 pp. Englisch.
