 | A Short History of the Universe by Joseph Silk
In A Short History of the Universe, [Joseph] Silk depicts cosmologists as archaeologists who study cosmic relics and construct theories of the universe's inception, its evolution, and its destiny. Silk describes how physicists apply their theories of subatomic particles to re-create the first moments of the big bang and how astronomers map huge reaches of the universe to understand the later creation of galaxies and clusters of galaxies. He also reports on one of science's most dramatic detective stories: the search for the dark matter that will determine the ultimate fate of the universe. AUTHOR: Joseph Silk
