Product details

"How Cosmologists Explain the Universe to Friends and Family" is a captivating nonfiction book that provides an accessible and up-to-date overview of modern cosmology. It is aimed at interested laypeople who have little or no background in physics but are curious about the mysteries of the universe. The authors, two experts in their field, explain the scientific method and the fundamentals of observation in cosmology. They discuss the origin of the cosmic microwave background and the development of large-scale structures in the universe, including the distribution of galaxies and galaxy clusters. The reader is taken on a journey through time, from the present to the beginnings of the universe, including the inflationary phase that sets the initial conditions for the universe's further evolution. The book concludes with a look at what lies beyond the known.
