= Clifford A. Pickover<br />
Following the hugely successful The<br />
Math <strong>Book</strong>, comes a richly illustrated<br />
chronology of physics, containing 250<br />
short, entertaining, and thoughtprovoking<br />
entries.<br />
In addition to exploring such engaging<br />
topics as parallel universes, the God<br />
particle, and Maxwell's demon, the book's<br />
time line extends back billions of years to<br />
the hypothetical Big Bang and forward<br />
trillions of years to a time of "quantum<br />
resurrection."<br />
Like the previous titles in this series, The<br />
Physics <strong>Book</strong> helps readers gain an<br />
understanding of major concepts without<br />
getting bogged down in complex details<br />
Clifford A. Pickover has written more<br />
than 40 books and over 200 articles on<br />
such topics as computers and creativity,<br />
art, mathematics, black holes, human<br />
intelligence, time travel, alien life,<br />
religion, and the history of science.<br />
