br. Il mondo dell'antimateria è così vicino al nostro che è praticamente impossibile distinguerlo dal mondo della materia. Si tratta di una vicinanza paradossale in quanto l'incontro tra questi due mondi porterebbe a una conflagrazione di estrema violenza e alla completa eliminazione di almeno uno dei due: incontrando l'antimateria, la materia si annichilirebbe quasi istantaneamente in uno scatenamento di energia che in una frazione di secondo raggiungerebbe una temperatura di circa un miliardo di gradi. Questo scenario catastrofico, e fortunatamente irreale, permette di chiarire il fatto che l'antimateria può esistere nelle nostre vicinanze solo in scarsissime quantità e che l'asimmetria materia antimateria è alla base della nostra stessa sopravvivenza. Eppure, agli albori dell'universo doveva esserci una pari quantità di materia e di antimateria: dov'è andata a finire tutta l'antimateria presente all'inizio dell'universo? Perché la natura si è presa la briga di creare un mondo specchio che oggi brilla per la sua assenza? Per cercare di rispondere a queste domande, Gabriel Chardin ripercorre qui la storia dell'universo, in particolare della sua tumultuosa giovinezza, e conduce il lettore alla ricerca dei mondi di antimateria, partendo dal Sistema solare per risalire verso le galassie e le sue altre grandi strutture.

br. Quant'è grande l'universo? Da che cosa è composto? Com'è nato? Come evolverà? Il libro accompagna il lettore in un percorso che parte da ciò che sappiamo per poi addentrarsi nel territorio sconosciuto dei grandi misteri del cosmo. Un viaggio sorprendente che apre nuovi orizzonti, svelando che dietro l'apparenza luminosa e sfavillante di stelle e galassie si nasconde un universo costituito da componenti di natura ignota. Il volume, in una nuova edizione aggiornata e ampliata, offre una panoramica dei temi più attuali e dei grandi enigmi del cosmo: materia ed energia oscure, Big Bang, buchi neri, onde gravitazionali e altro ancora. Il linguaggio accessibile a tutti, l'assenza di formule e le tante illustrazioni a colori permettono al lettore di orientarsi con sicurezza sia nell'universo luminoso che in quello oscuro e misterioso.

Arthur C. Clarke author of the greatest stories ever written of our destiny in outer space - '2001: A Space Odyssey' see rja27647 in my 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die catalogue and '2012: Odyssey Two' - presents here an immensely readable and stimulating collection of essays examining the enormous possibilities the human race now has for both creativity and destruction. Against Orwell's ominous date 1984 he has deliberately set the hopeful word 'Spring' because he feels that the worst of the world's long winter may well be over. Arthur C. Clarke's passionate interest in space explorationhis vast knowledge of current technological and scientific developments then 1984 and his informed optimistic humanismare communicated in an immediately accessible style which will strike a responsive chord in the hearts and minds of all readers concerned for the future of humankind on - and off - Earth.
