Laddar... Den stora planen (2010)av Stephen Hawking, Stephen Hawking

Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. Fairly easy to read, but only skims the surface of most of the issues covered. Ok as a broad overview of some ideas of cosmology but ultimately unsatisfying. Todos los universos proceden de las leyes físicas. Hawking y Mlodinow nos explican los progresos más recientes y descubrimientos del universo. The content was good for the topics I knew (although it wasn't enough), so I can be sure that the introduction of the topics I didn't know was also good (which includes almost everything in it related to quantum superpositions.) Could have been a bit focused on the mathematical side of things. Non ho gli strumenti cognitivi per comprendere il 95% delle cose spiegate in questo libro, e non mi sono mai sentito così ignorante. Ma è talmente interessante, e a volte scioccante, che viene voglia di approfondire. Faticoso se non si hanno nozioni di fisica.
It is all entertaining stuff, skilfully assembled and described in a fairly droll manner. The wave-particle duality of particles is described as being as foreign as drinking a chunk of sandstone, for example. The book is also commendably brief and by and large illuminating about the complexities of modern cosmology. It is all entertaining stuff, skilfully assembled and described in a fairly droll manner.

The book is also commendably brief and by and large illuminating about the complexities of modern cosmology. So read it to understand the universe. But if it is God you are after, my advice is to steer clear. The real news about “The Grand Design,” however, isn’t Mr. Hawking’s supposed jettisoning of God, information that will surprise no one who has followed his work closely. The real news about “The Grand Design” is how disappointingly tinny and inelegant it is. The spare and earnest voice that Mr. Hawking employed with such appeal in “A Brief History of Time” has been replaced here by one that is alternately condescending, as if he were Mr. Rogers explaining rain clouds to toddlers, and impenetrable.

Enligt författaren är boken en uppföljare till boken Kosmos - en kort historik "i ett försök att besvara Livets Yttersta Fråga, om Universum och Alltet". Här förklaras varför kosmos, enligt kvantteorin, inte har enbart en enda existens eller historia, varför kvantteorin kan förutsäga multiversum samt M-teorin.

Comme tous les ouvrages de Stephen Hawking, celui-ci (paru en 2011, ici réédité en poche) a suscité la polémique : revendiquant plus que jamais sa position d’agnostique, le mathématicien et théoricien de la physique y examine, avec le physicien Leonard Mlodinow, les vieilles interrogations métaphysiques, en particulier la question de l’existence d’un Dieu créateur. Pour Hawking, « il n’est nul besoin d’invoquer Dieu pour qu’il allume la mèche et fasse naître l’Univers ». L’auteur affirme, au long d’une argumentation dense mais tonique, que c’est à la création spontanée que nous devons notre univers, ainsi qu’une infinité d’autres, régis par des lois physiques différentes. Cette théorie, baptisée « théorie ultime de tout », ou « M-théorie », résoudrait simultanément les questionnements scientifiques et philosophiques. Pour un certain nombre d’experts des deux domaines, c’est là une confusion regrettable… Invérifiable, l’hypothèse se révèle convaincante si l’on décide de se laisser guider par sa démonstration à sens unique. --Camille AULAS, Le Monde diplomatique
