Imagine if The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy were a real, practical book about the mysteries of the universe . . .
The Universe in Your Hand takes us on a wonder-filled journey to the surface of our dying sun, shrinks us to the size of an atom and puts us in the deathly grip of distant black holes. Along the way you might come to understand, really understand, the mind-bending science that underpins modern life, from quantum mechanics to Einstein's theory of general relativity.
Through brilliant storytelling and humour rather than graphs and equations, internationally renowned astrophysicist Christophe Galfard has written an instant classic that brings the astonishing beauty of the universe to life – and takes us deep into questions about the beginning of time and the future of humanity.

Jag har lyssnat på många ljudböcker om teoretisk fysik med ambitionen att förstå detta för mig som lekman kryptiska språk. Denna bok hjälpte mig att knyta ihop fragmentariska kunskaper till att få mig att tro att jag åtminstone har en vag aning om vad det är dom försiggår där ute i rymden likväl som här på jorden.

Really good book! The writing is full of humor mixed with facts and information. It felt inspiring knowing learning could look like this. The author also managed to romanticize space, time and learning. Also really liked the reader! The reader manages to bring the text to life in a really wonderful way!

Macro and micro cosmos explained in a comprehensive way. Only at the very end does it become quite hard to grasp even for the enthusiast. By the way, the English audio version is better than the Swedish if it is the same to you.

For me, a proof of Einstein’s quote, ”the more I learn, the more I realize I don't know.”
