  A User's Guide to the Universe: Surviving the Perils of Black Holes, Time Paradoxes, and Quantum
Uncertainty
  
  Answers to science's most enduring questions from "Can I break the light-speed barrier
like on Star Trek?" and "Is there life on other planets?" to "What is empty space made of?"
  
  This is an
indispensable guide to physics that offers readers an overview of the most popular physics topics written in an
accessible, irreverent, and engaging manner while still maintaining a tone of wry skepticism. Even the novice will be
able to follow along, as the topics are addressed using plain English and (almost) no equations. Veterans of popular
physics will also find their nagging questions addressed, like whether the universe can expand faster than light, and
for that matter, what the universe is expanding into anyway.
  
  Gives a one-stop tour of all the big
questions that capture the public imagination including string theory, quantum mechanics, parallel universes, and the
beginning of time
  Explains serious science in an entertaining, conversational, and easy-to-understand way
 
Includes dozens of delightfully groan-worthy cartoons that explain everything from special relativity to Dark Matter
  Filled with fascinating information and insights, this book will both deepen and transform your understanding of the
universe.
  
  From Publishers Weekly
  
  With a large measure of humor and a minimum of math (one
equation), physics professor Goldberg and engineer Blomquist delve into the fascinating physics topics that rarely make
it into introductory classes, including time travel, extraterrestrials, and "quantum weirdness" to prove that physics'
"reputation for being hard, impractical, and boring" is wrong by at least two-thirds: "Hard? Perhaps. Impractical?
Definitely not... But boring? That's where we really take issue." Breaking up each topic into common sense questions
("How many habitable planets are there?" "What is Dark Matter?" "If the universe is expanding, what's it expanding
into?"), the duo provides explanations in everyday language with helpful examples, analogies, and Blomquist's charmingly
unpolished cartoons. Among other lessons, readers will learn about randomness through gambling; how a Star Trek-style
transporter might function in the real world; and what may have existed before the Big Bang. Despite the absence of
math, this nearly-painless guide is still involved and scientific, aimed at science hobbyists rather than
science-phobes; it should also prove an ideal reference companion for more technical classroom texts. 100 b&w
photos.

  "If you've ever wondered what happened before the big bang or where the universe is expanding, then
the new book A User's Guide to the Universe is for you. A hilariously serious journey through all the big questions (Can
I build a time machine?) with answers from real-life physicist David Goldberg and sly illustrator Jeff Blomquist, this
indispensable window on modern science makes a great nonfiction companion to the beloved, A Hitchhiker's Guide to the
Galaxy." (Christian Science Monitor)
