What kind of book is A Brief History of Time?
Hawking originally tentatively titled the book "A Brief History of Time Juvenile Edition". The electronic text received by Wu Zhongchao was finally named A Brief History of Time, which is only two letters different from A Brief History of Time, that is, the brief becomes a comparatively brief briefer, which can be translated as "A Brief History of Time", but it is not popular enough, so it has to be translated as "A Brief History of Time".
According to reports, the book is divided into 12 chapters, with the following topics: Chapter 1: Thinking about the Universe; Chapter 2:
an evolutionary image of the universe; Chapter 3: The Nature of Scientific Theories; Chapter 4: Newton's Universe; Chapter 5:
Relativity; Chapter 6: Bending Time and Space; Chapter 7: The Expanding Universe; Chapter 8:
The Evolution of the Big **, Black Holes, and the Universe; Chapter 9: Quantum Gravity; Chapter 10: Wormholes and Time Travel; Chapter XI:
The forces of nature and physics are unified; Chapter 12: Conclusion.
The book cuts out the overly advanced parts of A Brief History of Time and rewrites the chapters on the theory of relativity and curved space (which deal with special and general relativity, respectively). In addition, the accumulation of observational data in the past decade seems to show that the universe is open and will expand forever, and that its expansion rate is not slowing down, but accelerating. In Stephen Hawking's new book, Chapter 7 focuses on this open model of the universe.
Some people believe that there is a dark energy in the universe, some people even think that Einstein's theory needs to be modified on a cosmic scale, and others think that it indicates the effect of inflationary supercosmic horizon fluctuations, which is one of the most hotly debated issues in contemporary science. Reading Chapter 7 will take the reader through this series of recent developments in cosmological research.
Wu Zhongchao believes that although A Concise History of Time, published 17 years after the publication of A Brief History of Time, shows that some of the previous observations and theories need to be updated, the essence of the two books is still the same. The publication of A Concise History of Time will further arouse the enthusiasm of the scientific community and the public to explore the mysteries of the universe and bring new inspiration to people.

A Brief History of Time is a book on cosmology written by the great British physicist Stephen Hawking, which is a popular science model for popularizing advanced theoretical physics.
Introduction: Despite the clarity and wit of Professor Hawking's writings, some readers still find it difficult to grasp complex concepts. To deepen the reader's understanding, A Brief History of Time has also added more than 240 color illustrations, including satellite imagery and**.
This is due to technological advances such as the Hubble Space Telescope and computerized 3D and 4D physical imaging. The detailed illustrations allow the reader to experience the vast deserts of intergalactic space, the wonderful properties of black holes, the high fronts, and the microscopic world of particle physics where matter and antimatter collide. A Brief History of Time is an illustrated book that explores the core secrets of time and space.
Achievements: Since its first edition in 1988, A Brief History of Time has become a global milestone in scientific writing. It was translated into 40 languages and sold nearly 10 million copies, becoming a spectacle in the history of international publishing.
The book is a cutting-edge knowledge of the nature of the universe, and since then there have been extraordinary advances in the observation techniques of both the microscopic and macroscopic universes. These observations confirm many of Hawking's theoretical predictions in the first edition of the book, including the latest discovery by the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE), which detects certain conditions within 300,000 years of the creation of the universe in time regression, revealing Hawking's superhuman ability to perceive space and time.
The Moon is the most thoroughly studied celestial body, and the second celestial body that humans have ever visited is the Moon. The age of the Moon is about 4.6 billion years. The Moon, like the Earth, has a layered structure such as a shell, mantle, and core. >>>More
