このコンテンツについて

"The rabbit hole gets wrestled here. An old school saying applies: the more you know, the more you don’t know. Dance along this read into the unknown and find out that this book may be the best ever answer to ‘What is soul?'" (Chuck D, rapper and cofounder of Public Enemy)

Starred reviews from Kirkus and Publishers Weekly!

In this important guide to science and society, a cosmologist argues that physics must embrace the excluded, listen to the unheard, and be unafraid of being wrong.

Years ago, cosmologist Stephon Alexander received life-changing advice: to discover real physics, he needed to stop memorizing and start taking risks. In Fear of a Black Universe, Alexander shows that great physics requires us to think outside the mainstream - to improvise and rely on intuition. His approach leads him to three principles that shape all theories of the universe: the principle of invariance, the quantum principle, and the principle of emergence. Alexander uses them to explore some of physics' greatest mysteries, from what happened before the big bang to how the universe makes consciousness possible. Drawing on his experience as a Black physicist, he makes a powerful case for diversifying our scientific communities. Compelling and empowering, Fear of a Black Universe offers remarkable insight into the art of physics.

批評家のレビュー

“The book reminds me of Hawking’s A Brief History of Time - very brief and very ambitious. It covers an enormous amount of material and offers insights not only into physics but how we do physics and who we are as physicists.” (David Spergel, winner of the 2018 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics)

"This beautiful and surprising book will leave readers wanting to learn more about the author and his mind-bending ideas.... Lush with ideas and bold in its analysis of the status quo, this book reorients our view of science and the universe." (Kirkus, starred review)

"Theoretical physicist Alexander searches the far reaches of the cosmos while addressing the experiences of marginalized people in STEM fields in his refreshing survey.... The result is both an excellent work of advocacy and a welcoming introduction to physics." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
