A user's guide to the universe surviving the perils of black holes, time paradoxes, and quantum uncertainty

Answers to science's most enduring questions from "Can I build a transporter, like on Star Trek?" and "Is there life on other planets?" to "What is empty space made of?". In A User?s Guide to the Universe, physicists Dave Goldberg and Jeff Blomquist make good on two promises: you?ll get answers and you won't have to decipher any equations to understand them. (Well, maybe just one very short and very familiar equation.): This quirky and fun book takes you on a fascinating tour of the universe as we know it by asking (and answering) weird, important, and provocati.
