Information is more accessible than ever before. If we want to keep up with what's going on in the world, a twenty-four-hour news cycle will provide us with more facts than we can possibly absorb. And yet, this constant stream of data doesn't yield meaningful answers. Why is there political unrest throughout the globe? Why, with all of our technological advances, haven't we eliminated poverty? Why does injustice exist? Why are we here at all? Inventory of the Universe: Assembling an Infinite Number of Puzzle Pieces . . . Perfectly helps us make sense of our questions by starting at the beginning. With the help of a time-traveling reporter named Galacti, Sam Kneller takes us from the Big Bang to the present day, exploring the ways in which 13.8 billion years of intergalactic happenings have led to a human species that thinks, acts, and interacts as it does. For those of us who are ready to escape the limits of our daily perceptions, Inventory of the Universe will open the door to a greater understanding of our world . . . and ourselves.

Earth is teeming with animal and vegetal biodiversity. The planet's capacity to healthily feed its inhabitants is bar none. Our nest-egg's resources are incomparable. But, have we sabotaged our environment beyond the point of no return? Earth supplies us with every breath of air, freely. Water to quench our thirst. The sun for warmth. Seasons for plenteous harvests. Its landscapes for living and leisure. Its beauty for our serenity. Then, along comes humankind, greedy, leeching, pillaging, unscrupulous, slowly asphyxiating our very life-giver. We're draining it like a blood-sucking vampire taking the life out of its victim. Humanity sets up organizations, treaties, alliances, conferences for leaders and scientists. We aspire to peace and prosperity, playing the fiddle while Rome burns. We apply band-aids to what needs open-heart surgery. The survival of our planet and, consequently, our way of life is at stake. The doomsday clock is at 100 seconds to midnight. Will we pull off the rescue, and save our planet in one minute and forty seconds? Kristin, referring to The Explanation series, said, "one of a series of books that sets the stage for the secret to life." Be the eye-witness to the disturbing, destructive tendency of human nature and its counterpart, the uplifting, innovative solutions. Decide for yourself. Is the glass of peace and prosperity getting fuller or emptier? Buy Audit of the Universe, embark on the tour that leads to the secret of life.

Combining the latest scientific advances with storytelling skills unmatched in the cosmos, an award-winning astrophysicist and popular writer leads us on a tour of some of the greatest mysteries of our universe. In the constellation of Eridanus, there lurks a cosmic mystery: It’s as if something has taken a huge bite out of the universe. But what is the culprit? The hole in the universe is just one of many puzzles keeping cosmologists busy. Supermassive black holes, bubbles of nothingness gobbling up space, monster universes swallowing others—these and many other bizarre ideas are being pursued by scientists. Due to breathtaking progress in astronomy, the history of our universe is now better understood than the history of our own planet. But these advances have uncovered some startling riddles. In this electrifying new book, renowned cosmologist and author Paul Davies lucidly explains what we know about the cosmos and its enigmas, exploring the tantalizing—and sometimes terrifying—possibilities that lie before us. As Davies guides us through the audacious research offering mind-bending solutions to these and other mysteries, he leads us up to the greatest outstanding conundrum of all: Why does the universe even exist in the first place? And how did a system of mindless, purposeless particles manage to bring forth conscious, thinking beings? Filled with wit and wonder, What’s Eating the Universe? is a dazzling tour of cosmic questions, sure to entertain, enchant, and inspire us all.

For over ten years, the dark side of the universe has been headline news. Detailed studies of the rotation of spiral galaxies, and 'mirages' created by clusters of galaxies bending the light from very remote objects, have convinced astronomers of the presence of large quantities of dark (unseen) matter in the cosmos. The most striking fact is that they seem to compromise about 95% of the matter/energy content of the universe. As for ordinary matter, although we are immersed in a sea of dark particles, including primordial neutrinos and photons from fossil cosmological radiation, both we and our environment are made of ordinary, 'baryonic' matter. Authors Mazure and Le Brun present the inventory of matter, baryonic and exotic, and investigating the nature and fate of matter's twin, anti-matter. They show how technological progress has been a result of basic research, in tandem with the evolution of new ideas, and how the combined effect of these advances might help lift the cosmic veil.
