## Description

The First Three Minutes: A Modern View Of The Origin Of The Universe : Weinberg, Steven: desertcart.ae: Books

Review: Un libro ameno y muy interesante. Lectura muy recomendable. Una dosis concentrada de cultura y conocimientos para disfrutar de la lectura.
Review: I am a physicist and I really enjoied how this book explains the history of the Universe from the beginning, focusing also on the observative data that suggested us the standard model of the Big Bang. Reading this book you can see how the standard model explains all the observations and you can see in which fiele soffrire cosmology did we have to work in late 1970s, when the book was written. There is also an appendix in which Weinberg shows the progresses done from 1970s to 1993. The book is old and it does not contain very recent discoveries in cosmology, lime the acceleration of the expansion or the maps of the CMB, but it gives a very nice overview of the main topics in cosmology. As a teacher of physics I think that the book can be read by an interested secondary school student. The explanations are clear and do not need any specific knowledge in physics, astronomy or maths.

*by R***N on 11 October 2019*

Steven Weinberg is one of the luminaries of the quantum mechanics world, so how did he write about cosmology? Very well. Much of tyne book is speculation, but when you go so close to God (creation) how can you say anything with certainty? Well conservation laws still apply (or assumed to apply), and you can assume by model that universe was a tiny ball, this leads to some rather interesting conclusions. Want to hear about Creation and something more specific than 'big bang', then there's no better book than this. Note that they're are no equations here. This is not a substitute for narlikar or other cosmology textbooks, but is a popular science read, and is not from a popular science writer but an extremely accomplished physicist. Note 2: it was written in 1978,but standard model hasn't changed, for string theory based popular science books (not fully accepted by scientific community), you may want to check out michio kaku
