{"product_id":"universe-a-guide-to-everything","title":"Universe: A Guide to Everything","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe physical universe is a most peculiar concept, not only different from the objects it contains but also from space itself. Cosmology – the science that seeks to explain it – has always differed from other sciences, drawing on philosophy and even theology. These influences remain, even in today's data-driven cosmological models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis accessible and far-reaching book traces the development of cosmological thought from antiquity to the twenty-first century, with particular focus on the foundational work of Einstein, Hubble and others in the early twentieth century. It explores how modern theories rest on a surprisingly fragile base and argues that many cosmic mysteries may remain permanently unsolved. Rich in historical and philosophical insight, this is a lucid guide to what we know – and perhaps cannot know – about the universe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reaktion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44228368924737,"sku":"9781836391791","price":38.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/3179\/3984\/files\/Universe.jpg?v=1784509964","url":"https:\/\/qagoma.store\/products\/universe-a-guide-to-everything","provider":"QAGOMA Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
