The nature of Time and Space are truly up for grabs. With a witty and accessible style Osborne leads us on a historical and informative journey through the philosophies of the universe including the importance of telescopes, mathematics and relativity theory and ending with contemporary mind-expanding concepts such as the reversibility of time and parallel universes. Chapters include: The Beginnings of Cosmology From Stars In Their Eyes to Telescopes and Beyond The Newtonian Revolution: Mechanics and Maestros The Rise of Modern Cosmology: From Here to Eternity New Dimensions Holes, Bangs and Curvature: Eternity Gets Bigger
