En Una breve historia de casi todo intenta entender qué ocurrió entre la Gran Explosión y el surgimiento de la civilización, cómo pasamos de la nada a lo que ahora somos. El autor aborda materias tan terriblemente aburridas como geología, química y física, pero lo hace de forma tal que resultan comprensibles y amenas. La cuestión es cómo sabemos lo que sabemos. En sus viajes a través del tiempo y del espacio Bryson se topa con una espléndida colección de científicos asombradamente excéntricos, competitivos, obsesivos e insensatos.

Book Description
Al leer este resumen, abordará las principales cuestiones científicas de la vida y el Universo. Le ayudará a comprender de dónde viene y en qué planeta vive. También descubrirá que : La Tierra es sólo una pequeña parte del Universo. Hay muchos peligros que nos amenazan, tanto en el subsuelo como en nuestro sistema solar. Nuestros antepasados, los homínidos Homo Sapiens, no revelaron todos sus secretos. El mundo de lo infinitamente pequeño es tan importante como el de lo infinitamente grande. Para empezar, es necesario saber que sólo debemos nuestra existencia a un azaroso conjunto de átomos. Nuestra vida se compone de estas extraordinarias mezclas atómicas. Esta idea nos lleva a esta primera observación: nuestra vida pende de un hilo, al igual que nuestra supervivencia. En efecto, la longevidad de la especie humana es tan incierta como estos ensamblajes de átomos.

Book Description
This new edition of the acclaimed bestseller is lavishly illustrated to convey, in pictures as in words, Bill Bryson’s exciting, informative journey into the world of science.

Taking as his territory everything from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization, Bryson seeks to understand how we got from there being nothing at all to there being us. The result is a sometimes profound, sometimes funny, and always supremely clear and entertaining adventure in the realms of human knowledge, as only Bill Bryson can render it. Now, in this handsome new edition, Bill Bryson’s words are supplemented by full-color artwork that explains in visual terms the concepts and wonder of science, at the same time giving face to the major players in the world of scientific study. Eloquently and entertainingly described, as well as richly illustrated, science has never been more involving or entertaining.

Languages : en
Pages : 624
Book Description
One of the world’s most beloved and bestselling writers takes his ultimate journey -- into the most intriguing and intractable questions that science seeks to answer. In A Walk in the Woods, Bill Bryson trekked the Appalachian Trail -- well, most of it. In In A Sunburned Country, he confronted some of the most lethal wildlife Australia has to offer. Now, in his biggest book, he confronts his greatest challenge: to understand -- and, if possible, answer -- the oldest, biggest questions we have posed about the universe and ourselves. Taking as territory everything from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization, Bryson seeks to understand how we got from there being nothing at all to there being us. To that end, he has attached himself to a host of the world’s most advanced (and often obsessed) archaeologists, anthropologists, and mathematicians, travelling to their offices, laboratories, and field camps. He has read (or tried to read) their books, pestered them with questions, apprenticed himself to their powerful minds. A Short History of Nearly Everything is the record of this quest, and it is a sometimes profound, sometimes funny, and always supremely clear and entertaining adventure in the realms of human knowledge, as only Bill Bryson can render it. Science has never been more involving or entertaining.

A Really Short History of Nearly Everything
Author: Bill Bryson
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0552562963
Category : Cosmology
Languages : en
Pages : 53
Book Description
"Bill's own fascination with science began with a battered old schoolbook he had when he was about ten or eleven years old in America. It had an illustration that captivated him - a cutaway diagram showing Earth's interior as it would look if you cut into it with a large knife and carefully removed about a quarter of its bulk. And he very clearly remembers thinking: 'How do they know that?' Bill's story-telling skill makes the 'How?' and, just as importantly, the 'Who?' of scientific discovery entertaining and accessible for all ages. In this exciting edition for younger readers, he covers the wonder and mysteries of time and space, the frequently bizarre and often obsessive scientists and the methods they used, the crackpot theories which held sway for far too long, the extraordinary accidental discoveries which suddenly advanced whole areas of science when the people were actually looking for something else (or in the wrong direction) and the mind-boggling fact that, somehow, the universe exists and, against all odds, life came to be on this wondrous planet we call home." -- publisher website.
