This affordable bundle includes the print edition of In Quest of the Universe, Seventh Edition with Navigate Access that unlocks a comprehensive and interactive eBook, student practice activities and assessments, engaging videos and animations, a full suite of instructor resources, and learning analytics reporting tools.
Designed for the non-science major, In Quest of the Universe, Seventh Edition provides a comprehensive, accessible introduction to astronomy, while taking students on an exciting trek through our solar system and beyond. The twentieth century gave us two great theories of physics. The general theory of relativity describes the behavior of very large things, and quantum theory the behavior of very small things.
With his inimitable mixture of science, history, and biography, Gribbin shows how—despite skepticism among many physicists—these two great theories are very compatible, and point to a deep truth about the nature of our existence. The answer lies, intriguingly, with the age of the universe: Nothing will be lost here, and everything—a clear understanding—will be gained. Available with WebAssign! Author Theo Koupelis has set the mark for a student-friendly, accessible introductory astronomy text with In Quest of the Universe.
He has now developed a new text to accommodate those course that focus mainly on planets and the solar system. Ideal for the one-term course, In Quest of the Solar System opens with material essential to the introductory course gravity, light, telescopes, the sun and then moves on to focus on key material related to our solar system.
Incorporating the rich pedagogy and vibrant art program that have made his earlier books a success, Koupelis' In Quest of the Solar System is the clear choice for students making their way through their first astronomy course. What is superstring theory and why is it important? Can superstrings offer the fulfilment of Einstein's lifelong dream of a Theory of Everything?
Co-authored by one of the leading pioneers in superstrings, Michio Kaku, this book approaches scientific questions with the excitement of a detective story, looking at new scientific research that may make the impossible possible. Suppose you and I still wondered whether all of the pinpoints of light in the night sky are the same distance from us.
