The complete history of the universe. Bang! Space, time, matter... The Universe was born 13.7 billion years ago. Infinitely small at first, it expanded more rapidly than anyone can contemplate.
Brian May, Patrick Moore and Chris Lintott explain how all this came about, from the moment when time and space came into existence, to the formation of the first stars, galaxies and planets, to the evolution of human beings able to contemplate our own origins and destiny, through to the infinite future.
The story is told in clear, straight-forward terms, in the strict order in which the events happened, and uses no mathematics.
Bang! is an amazing story and this newly revised edition brings the original text up to date. Based upon the work of great scientists such as Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking and hundreds of other brilliant minds, Bang! is an accessible and fascinating read.
