What’s Eating the Universe?: And Other Cosmic Questions
Rs. 3,890.00
Paul Davies
Brilliant. You won’t find a clearer, more engaging guide to what we know (or would like to know) about the universe and how it is put together. — Bill Bryson ― author of The Body: A Guide for Occupants
Paul Davies gives us a thought-provoking, fascinating, and delightful journey through some of the big questions that have perplexed and tantalized scientists throughout history. These are the questions and paradoxes that have stumped and teased history’s greatest minds. What happened before the beginning? What is the meaning of the universe? Are there other universes? –– Michio Kaku
Paul Davies brings his customary lucidity to a survey of some of the most fascinating and puzzling aspects of our universe, simultaneously educating us about its vertiginous wonders and giving us a real sense of science’s questions as it confronts and explores them and wrestles with their mystery. It is an absorbing and stimulating read, one of the best of its kind. — A.C. Grayling ― author of The Frontiers of Knowledge
Compelling … Davies excels in succinctly addressing the cosmological conundrums that haven’t received as much attention as dark matter, dark energy, what triggered the big bang and the fate of the universe ― Forbes
A whistle-stop tour of the biggest mysteries that cosmologists are investigating today … a fun way of making sure you’re all caught up on where cosmology is at today ― Physics World
What’s Eating the Universe? is a veritable feast for curious minds. Davies, a polymath and lyrical writer, masterfully tackles all the big questions ranging from why this Universe to the meaning of life and the significance of the present moment-a whirlwind journey through ideas that have shaped our understanding of the cosmos and its constituents. — Priyamvada Natarajan ― author of Mapping the Heavens: The Radical Scientific Ideas That Reveal the Cosmos

‘Truly impressive…It’s hard to imagine a better rough guide to science.’ Guardian
‘A travelogue of science, with a witty, engaging, and well-informed guide‘ The Times
Mr Bryson has a natural gift for clear and vivid expression. I doubt that a better book for the layman about the findings of modern science has been written ― Sunday Telegraph
A fascinating idea, and I can’t think of many writers, other than Bryson, who would do it this well. It’s the sort of book I would have devoured as a teenager. It might well turn unsuspecting young readers into scientists. And the famous, slightly cynical humour is always there ― Evening Standard
A genuinely useful and readable book. There is a phenomenal amount of fascinating information packed between its covers … A thoroughly enjoyable, as well as educational, experience. Nobody who reads it will ever look at the world around them in the same way again ― Daily Express
Of course, there are people much better qualified than Bill Bryson to attempt a project of this magnitude. None of them, however, can write fluent Brysonese, which, as pretty much the entire Western reading public now knows, is an appealing mixture of self-deprecation, wryness and punnery ― Spectator
The very book I have been looking for most of my life… Bryson wears his knowledge with aplomb and a lot of very good jokes ― Daily Mail

A clear and accessible examination of the quest to combine Einstein’s general relativity with quantum theory to create an all-encompassing “theory of everything” about the nature of the universe. — Andrew Anthony ― The Observer
Kaku elucidates esoteric mathematics with graspable, real-life illustrations, and explains how breakthroughs in theoretical physics have had a tangible impact on human experience … The result is both mind-bending and surprisingly readable. — Pippa Bailey ― New Statesman

Black Holes And Baby Universes And Other Essays
Rs. 2,290.00or 3 X Rs.763.33 withRead moreStephen Hawking
- NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“[Hawking] sprinkles his explanations with a wry sense of humor and a keen awareness that the sciences today delve not only into the far reaches of the cosmos, but into the inner philosophical world as well.”—The New York Times Book Review
Thirteen extraordinary essays shed new light on the mystery of the universe—and on one of the most brilliant thinkers of our time.
In his phenomenal bestseller A Brief History of Time, Stephen Hawking literally transformed the way we think about physics, the universe, reality itself. In these thirteen essays and one remarkable extended interview, the man widely regarded as the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Einstein returns to reveal an amazing array of possibilities for understanding our universe.
Building on his earlier work, Hawking discusses imaginary time, how black holes can give birth to baby universes, and scientists’ efforts to find a complete unified theory that would predict everything in the universe. With his characteristic mastery of language, his sense of humor and commitment to plain speaking, Stephen Hawking invites us to know him better—and to share his passion for the voyage of intellect and imagination that has opened new ways to understanding the very nature of the cosmos. -

A Physics of Possibilities
Rs. 2,490.00or 3 X Rs.830.00 withRead morePaul Levy
Explore the World of Quantum SpiritualityQuantum theory demands a radical re-visioning of the role of consciousness as the underlying organizing principle of the universe. Quantum physics is the bridge that elegantly connects two heretofore separate parts of ourselves in one stunning stroke, unifying the physical with the spiritual dimension of experience.Written for readers with no background in quantum physics, Levy contemplates the deeper philosophical underpinnings of quantum physics, exploring the fundamental conditions it provokes: • What is implied by the concept of no “objective reality?”• How are we participating via our consciousness in creating our experience of a reality that quantum theory itself describes as “dreamlike?”• What are the implications for us in our everyday lives that as quantum theory reveals that what we call reality is more like a dream that we had previously imagined? -

The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity
Rs. 3,490.00or 3 X Rs.1,163.33 withRead moreDavid Graeber, David Wengrow
A boldly ambitious work … entertaining and thought-provoking … an impressively large undertaking that succeeds in making us reconsider not just the remote past but also the too-close-to-see present, as well as the common thread that is our shifting and elusive nature. — Andrew Anthony ― Observer
What a gift … Graeber and Wengrow offer a history of the past 30,000 years that is not only wildly different from anything we’re used to, but also far more interesting: textured, surprising, paradoxical, inspiring. — William Deresiewicz ― The Atlantic
Iconoclastic and irreverent … an exhilarating read … As we seek new, sustainable ways to organise our world, we need to understand the full range of ways our ancestors thought and lived. And we must certainly question conventional versions of our history which we have accepted, unexamined, for far too long. — David Priestland ― The Guardian
Pacey and potentially revolutionary … This is more than an argument about the past, it is about the human condition in the present. — Bryan Appleyard ― Sunday Times
A fascinating, radical, and playful entry into a seemingly exhaustively well-trodden genre, the grand evolutionary history of humanity. It seeks nothing less than to completely upend the terms on which the Standard Narrative rests … erudite, compelling, generative, and frequently remarkably funny … once you start thinking like Graeber and Wengrow, it’s difficult to stop. — Emily M. Kern ― Boston Review
A spectacular, flashy and ground-breaking retelling of human history, blazing with iconoclastic rebuttals to conventional wisdom. Full of fresh thinking, it’s a pleasure to read and offers a bracing challenge on every page. — Simon Sebag Montefiore ― BBC History
