Product Description

Product Description

In this first of a trilogy the Universe tells its own life story of chaos and creativity science and struggle. Time after time the Universe nearly perishes then bravely triumphs and turns itself in to new and even more spectacular forms. Eventually it turns stardust in to you. This story begins in the very beginning and ends with the formation of the earth. The second book will tell of tiny new living things and end with giant dinosaurs. In the third book mammals will rise and so will you. Recent discoveries about the beginning and evolution of the universe are grippingly told in a pioneering way in a new illustrated book for children. In BORN WITH A BANG the Universe tells the tumultuous 13-billion year story in a way that both children and adults feel their intimate participation in the story. Although astrophysics and evolutionary biology are undergoing a dramatic renaissance of discovery many of these discoveries are not included in science textbooks. BORN WITH A BANG makes these astounding discoveries accessible to teachers parents and children.

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful introduction to the big bang and the tricky bits afterwards, 11 Nov 2008
beautifully written and illustrated with scientific discussion and theories separately at the back so as not to ruin the flow, but be there for inquisitive 7 year olds!
appeals to a wide range of children

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book, 5 Jun 2009
By Ms. J. W. Siverns (Birmingham UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
With a very literal and inquisitive 6 year old I wanted a book to explain the universe and found this on amazon. It is absolutely wonderful, the theory of the universe's beginning based on current research but pitched in lovely simple language, with a touch of humour and gorgeous illustrations. Perfect. He has already asked for the next 2 books.
