We have always looked up at the sky and wondered.

The desire to explore and understand what lies beyond us is at the heart of scientific discovery. Ever since the ancient Babylonians tracked celestial objects on clay tablets, the search for meaning in an infinitely vast universe has been a profoundly human pursuit.

In this spellbinding book, Dr Sarah Alam Malik takes us on a journey through the discoveries that shaped our perception of the cosmos. From the Earth-centred worldview of Aristotle and the Copernican revolution to Isaac Newton unifying the terrestrial and celestial under the law of gravity. Each breakthrough is a testament to humanity’s determination to peek behind the curtain of our world to examine what’s underneath.

Our ability to imagine and seek out a much grander and more mysterious reality drives us towards an incredible future. From the fiery deaths of faraway suns to the complexities of the subatomic, this is the story of what we’ve found and how they continue to change us.

A Brief History of the Universe (and our place in it) is a fascinating story of discovery and a beautiful celebration of our endless curiosity.

Reseñas de la crítica

‘Many delightful anecdotes . . . a book about our discovery of the universe, how we stood on the shoulders of giants to get this far, and what may come next. She is a warm, clear writer who covers an awful lot in a small space’
‘This especially engaging history of how humans have tried to understand, interpret and corral the mysteries of the cosmos does a creditable job of tracing evolving beliefs, theories and research from the beginning of recorded history through today . . . Malik is a great storyteller, writing in a style well suited to conveying awe while evoking unimaginable sizes, distances and phenomena . . . This is popular science at its best, authoritative and thought-provoking’
‘In this informative and engaging book, award-winning particle physicist Dr. Sarah Alam Malik offers an accessible exploration of the history of the cosmos and how human curiosity continues to shape our present and future’
'A thrilling reminder of how much we know about the universe and what a marvelous journey it has been to discover it. With just the right amount of detail and human interest, this is a sweeping tour of the laws of physics, the scope of the universe and the place of life within it' (Sean Carroll, author of The Biggest Ideas in the Universe)
'A bold and fast-paced history of the cosmos from Babylon to life beyond Earth. Sarah Alam Malik captures the wonder and mystery of life in the Universe in a style reminiscent of Carl Sagan' (Dr. Jeffrey Forshaw, professor and author)
