Cosmology Revealed: Living Inside the Cosmic Egg: Springer Praxis Books

Autor Anthony Fairall
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 dec 2000
This book with its clear explanation of the nature of the universe assumes no prior knowledge of astronomy or cosmology and so will attract interested public and new amateur astronomers.
It provides much more on large-scale structures than other popular-level cosmology books. The mix of cosmology /large scale structures/anthropic principle and perspective on the universe should, as far as the author knows, be unique. A special colour feature incorporated in the book will offer three-dimensional views of the surrounding universe to ever greater depths.

"Cosmology Revealed: Living Inside the Cosmic Egg is the product of a person like us, a planetarium director who takes joy in introducing astronomy to the public. … The language is clear, concise, and very readable. The illustrations and images contained in each chapter are perfect complements to the text. … To anyone looking to recommend a good book on cosmology, this is ideal."
