| Title | Cosmic numbers: The numbers that define our universe |
| Author(s) | James D. Stein |
| Publication | New York, Basic Books, 2011. |
| Description | xii, 228p. |
| Abstract Note | Author traces the discovery, evolution, and interrelationships of the numbers that define our world. Everyone knows about the speed of light and absolute zero, but numbers like Boltzmannâs constant and the Chandrasekhar limit are not as well known, and they do far more than one might imagine: They tell us how this world began and what the future holds. Much more than a gee-whiz collection of facts and figures, Cosmic Numbers illuminates why particular numbers are so importantâboth to the scientist and to the rest of us. |
