copertina morbida. Condition: buone. SAGAN CARL ILLUSTRAZIONI MILLER RON (illustrator). Che cosa sappiamo sull'universo, e come lo sappiamo? Da dove è venuto, e dove sta andando? L'universo ebbe un inizio e, in tal caso cosa c'era prima? Il tempo avrà mai una fine?" Con questi quesiti Stephen Hawking ci introduce in una straordinaria avventura: un'emozionante cavalcata nel tempo. L'espansione dell'universo, il principio di indeterminazione, le particelle elementari e le forze della natura, l'origine e la sorte dell'universo, l'unificazione della fisica sono le grandi tappe di questo viaggio indimenticabile. Ma oltre a riassumere le conoscenze tradizionali Hawking illustra le ultime teorie sulla fisica dei buchi neri, il principio antropico, la teoria dell'universo inflazionario, l'universo contenuto in una bolla. Introduzione di Carl Sagan.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Ron Miller (illustrator). First Edition. An early third printing of the simultaneous true first edition (the American Bantam first edition was also published on 1 April 1988). The printer's page states: 'Published 1988 by Bantam Press - Reprinted 1988 (twice). Black and white text illustrations and diagrams throughout by Ron Miller. Introduction by Carl Sagan. ***Near fine in blue cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The boards are clean and unmarked. No bumps or creases. Page block edges clean. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. Pages clean and bright. No creases or tears. ***In a near fine colour illustrated dustwrapper which is unpriced (possibly an export issue). The dustwrapper is complete, with just minimal edge rubbing. No creases, chips or tears. No fading. Dustwrapper bright. ***242mm x 160mm. 198 pages including glossary and index at the back of the book. ***'Stephen Hawking is one of the world's leading cosmologists and is widely regarded as the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Einstein. Although he has been widely published within his highly specialized field, A Brief History of Time is the first work he has written for the non-mathematical layman. In it he explores the outer reaches of our knowledge of astrophysics and the nature of time and the universe. The result is a revelation: a book that not only serves as an introduction to today's most important theories on the cosmos but affords a unique opportunity to experience one of the most imaginative and influential thinkers of our age. ***Confined to a wheelchair for the last twenty years by a motor-neuron disease, Professor Hawking is best known for his work on black holes. But here he turns his mind to the biggest question of all: the search for a unified theory that combines general relativity and quantum mechanics. ***Always in the clearest, most accessible terms Stephen Hawking reviews the great theories of the cosmos, from Galileo and Newton to Einstein and Poincaré, and then moves on into deepest space for the greatest intellectual adventure of all. Could time run backwards? Will a 'no boundary' universe replace the big bang theory? What happens in a universe with eleven dimensions? These are just some of the questions considered with devastating lucidity and brilliance in "A Brief History of Time", a work that is bound to become a classic of its kind.' ***'When the achievements of the physicists of the twentieth century come to be considered objectively, the work of Stephen Hawking will be writ large in the annals of science.' Astronomy. (Quote and review quote taken from the front and the back flaps of the dustwrapper respectively) ***A third printing of the simultaneous true first edition, complete in the original dustwrapper. Early printings of this iconic title are extremely hard to come by now, especially in such nice, bright, collectable condition. The book was rapidly reprinted many times in 1988, the first year of publication. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
