520 _a"At the heart of our galaxy lies a monster four million times more massive than the Sun. Within its domain, space and time are so warped that no light escapes. According to Einstein, here lies the end of time. According to twenty-first century physics, the reality may be far more bizarre. Meet the most extraordinary object in the universe: the black hole . . . In this . . . book, acclaimed physicists Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw take you to the edge of our understanding of black holes; a scientific journey to the research frontier spanning a century of physics, from Einstein to Hawking and beyond"--Provided by publisher
