About this title

Synopsis

Everyone's Guide to Atoms, Einstein & the Universe allows the reader to explore the mysteries of the universe, from the micro-world to the cosmos, and explains the major discoveries of modern physics, astronomy and cosmology in ways everyone can understand. Nothing is dumbed down; this is real science made accessible to real people by replacing technical jargon and math with English and heavenly pictures.

Everyone s Guide to Atoms, Einstein and the Universe is completely sold out, but there is a new paperback version named Einstein for Everyone that contains all the same text and illustrations (including 150 figures and 33 full color images) that are in the original Everyone s Guide book.

Learn why stars shine, what atoms are made of, how we can generate more energy with less pollution, how old and how large is our universe.

You don't have to be a great musician to appreciate great music. Nor do you need math expertise to appreciate the exciting discoveries and intriguing mysteries of our universe. If you can change money, you can understand Einstein. And black holes, relativity, quantum mechanics, and the Big Bang. This book contains 150 figures with 33 full color images.
