About

In this major trilogy, Sean Carroll opens up the world of physics and shows that you don't need a science degree to gain a deeper insight into the workings of the universe.

Starting with the ideas that revolutionised our view of nature, The Biggest Ideas in the Universe: Space, Time and Motion poses deep questions about the cosmos, guiding us through classical physics from Euclid and Galileo to Newton and Einstein. Carroll investigates how a twin could be seven years older than her brother, and demonstrates why it's easier than you might think for a drifting astronaut to get back to the safety of the space station.

These are the laws of physics as you've never understood them before.
