Об электронной книге
A fascinating account of current theories on the way the universe will come to an end
The last three minutes of the universe has been the subject of much scientific and lay speculation for many years. Now, Paul Davies clearly and concisely sets out the arguments for three possible outcomes:
1) the universe will go on expanding indefinitely
2) it will slow down and eventually collapse into a zero space, the reverse of the Big Bang
3) it will reach a steady state neither expanding nor contracting but staying the same forever
As a religious man, Davies is equally curious about the implications for humans: is there any sense in which humanity can expect to survive for eternity?

Об авторе
Paul Davies obtained his Ph.D. at University College, London, and has worked at the universities of Cambridge, London, Newcastle upon Tyne and Adelaide. He holds the post of Visiting Professor in the Physics Department at Imperial College, London, although he remains based in South Australia. Professor Davies is well known as an author and broadcaster. His particular interest in the philosophical aspects of science is reflected in his many books, including the bestsellers God and the New Physics, The Mind of God and The Fifth Miracle. In 1995 he received the world's largest price for intellectual endeavour, the Templeton prize, for his work on science and religion.
