A beautifully illustrated, full-colour guide with all of the big questions of the world above our heads explained in half a minute.
This intricately illustrated full-colour guide to the cosmos goes over the fifty key discoveries in astronomy, such as the mapping of the Cosmic Microwave Background and the distinction between a pulsar and a quasar. An addition to the digestible "30-Second" series.
'If you struggled with Stephen Hawking's book about Big Bang and gave up halfway through Brian Cox's programmes about the solar system, then this book could be for you. It really does deliver elementary particle-sized nuggets designed to be read in 30 seconds on 50 subjects, from The Big Bang to the search for life on another planet.'
