Black Holes and Time Warps
Archival Summary & Scope
Nobel laureate Kip Thorne, the Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics Emeritus at Caltech, guides readers through the profound and often bizarre implications of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity. Alongside fellow pioneers Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose, Thorne explores the universe's most enigmatic phenomena: black holes, wormholes, singularities, gravitational waves, and time machines. This engaging work masterfully blends scientific history and explanation, offering a uniquely human perspective on the quest to understand the principles governing our cosmos. Winner of the Phi Beta Kappa Award in Science.Categorization Notes
