Space• Time• Us and the amazing Dr. Asimov ...
Among all of earth’s animals, should man be considered a pygmy or a giant? Which produces more heat, the sun’s center or an exploded hydrogen bomb? In the world of split-split-split seconds, what astonishing things happen to the concept of Time?
Here, in seventeen exciting essays, world-famed scientist and writer, Dr. Isaac Asimov, views the realms of Biology, Chemistry, Physics and the Astronomy as conjoining branches of Science—and from that lofty vantage point delightfully ponders questions to which you may only think you have the answers. Dr. Asimov’s theories and conjectures constantly surprise and instruct the reader even as they entertain. Here is a book of solid fact which—in the skilled hands of an author also known for his superb science fiction stories and novels—takes on the aura of pure irresistible adventure.
