E-Books →Get in Touch With Your Universe

Do you know your bosons from your quarks? Your matter from your antimatter? Does the fact that the universe is just so big, and so cold, make your brain ache, or want to find out more?
Broken down into short, sharp chapters that navigate the very smallest particles - one-tenth of a billionth of a metre across (1/10,000,000,000) - to the largest, most deadly of stars, GET IN TOUCH: WITH YOUR UNIVERSE will take you through the weirdness of spacetime, wormholes and dark energy, and the inevitable, but possibly not final, collapse of the universe as we think we know it.
Unlike most books on the cosmos, it contains only a couple of mathematical equations - the most fascinating being the Drake equation, which is used to calculate the possibility of other life 'out there' - and instead dips into both the logical and the philosophical nature of how our human consciousness interprets the subject of our superb universe.
