The Universe in a Nutshell

Mit seinem Bestseller "Eine kurze Geschichte der Zeit" wurde Stephen Hawking 1988 weltberühmt und zum Inbegriff des genialen Wissenschaftlers. In seinem neusten Buch wendet er sich nun Fragen zu, die Ende der achtziger Jahre selbst den hellsten Köpfen der Kosmologie nicht in den Sinn gekommen wären. In der für ihn typischen witzigen und bilderreichen Sprache und mittels 250 anschaulicher, atemberaubend schöner Farbillustrationen führt Hawking den Laien in das surreale Wunderland der modernen Raumzeitforschung ein.
