Product details

The History of the Universe - From the Big Bang to the Conquest of Space. The Big Bang marks the beginning of everything we know. After that, the real party began, with the formation of countless planets. One of them is our Earth, which fostered life in an enormous variety. In the last moments on the geological timescale, humans finally appeared on the scene. And that was far from the end! The cosmic history is a tale full of origins, as something new is constantly beginning! This casually told non-fiction book uncovers the unknown and the quirky about the origins of world-changing and quite mundane things: from black holes to the QWERTY keyboard to the origin of belly button lint.

  • Compact overview: Big Bang and the formation of strange matter, the beginning of earthly life, and the evolution of humans.
  • Continents and oceans, fickle weather, and dinosaurs: the exciting history of planet Earth.
  • An original perspective on human history: What was the first cooked meal made of, how did the first song sound, and who came up with the idea of toilet paper?
  • What civilization has brought us: from city living to taming the elements to alcohol consumption - the concept of zero, the birth control pill, and flying machines: cool inventions that changed the world.

How it all began: science explains – and it’s fun! It was a long journey from the creation myths that Professor Stephen Hawking addresses in his foreword to established knowledge. Science provides answers to (almost) everything - even to questions you’ve never thought to ask. A unique journey of discovery through our universe - humorous and scientifically grounded!.
