The universe is a confounding place. The author attempts to explain science with humor in this collection of essays.We have black holes, dark matter, theories of contraction, expansion, the big bang all of them go into areas that the average person might find confusing. Neil DeGrasse Tyson's new collection of essays written between 1995 through 2005 for NATURE magazine proposes questions and answers that those without a degree in astrophysics can understand.Tyson doesn't rest on his laurels either. These essays have been updated where appropriate to reflect new theories, changes, etc. The last section on science and Hollywood is particularly interesting (and funny). Tyson sat with James Cameron and noted to the "Titanic" director that the stars in the film were all wrong yet he got so many other facts right. He asked him simply why he couldn't also get the stars right as well. Cameron's reply, "Imagine how much more money I would have made if I had gotten the stars right!" silenced Tyson. Later, though, he got a request for the correct alignment of the stars for the special edition of "Titanic" released a couple of years back. Tyson happily complied with his request.Tyson also tackles subjects as diverse as asteroids, to the five points of Lagrange (areas where gravity and centrifugal forces rotating systems balance. He uses an imaginative and funny analogy involving a thrill ride and vomit to make his points. He also tells us what the color of the cosmos really means. Insightful and often fun to read Tyson's book of essays look into a world that is often beyond the imagination of the average person but reminds us all why we should try and imagine it and appreciate it.
It was a perfect gift for my friend, he loves Tyson and he is fascinated by space
Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson, who is also known as the “black science guy†on various internet forums, such as reddit. Dr. Tyson’s also got some popular internet memes styled after him such as the “we got a bad ass over here†meme. However, in real life he is the director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York City and is an extremely accomplished astrophysicist. In a lot of ways, he is the Carl Sagan of our generation. If you have seen the TV show Cosmos on either PBS or Fox, he is the new host for this revamped show which used to be hosted by Carl Sagan. He is very well known for his ability to take scientific concepts and distill them into something that we can understand. I’m no scientist, so I need someone who understands these concepts to explain them in a way that we can relate to.This book is a selection of small essays that he’s written for various newspapers, magazines, and internet blogs. Death by Black Hole touches on a lot of amazing scientific concepts that are almost taken by granted by a lot of people today, but it provides a foundation for everything that we do in space or dealing with the cosmos. Dr. Tyson is excellent at taking these concepts and putting them in situations that we can understand as non-scientists complete with humor. A wonderful example of this is in the essay “Going Ballistic," where he states what happens to a person who jumps through a hole dug through the center of the earth. The old “what happens when you dig all the way to China†quandary. He says, "Now comes the fun part. Jump in. You now fall continuously in a weightless, free-fall state until you reach the earth’s center, where you vaporize in the heat of the iron core.†He then goes on to ignore that complication and then talk about gravity and what happens as you move closer to and then farther from a center of mass.Dr. Tyson is one of the best scientific minds of our generation, and his major contribution to science is his ability to connect with the layman, which is you and me, and help them understand why science is so important to today’s society. So if you want a few laughs, and if you want to learn about astrophysics, astronomy, “regular†physics, and all the other amazing things that happen in our cosmos, I would recommend reading Death by Black Hole.
This book is AWESOME. Tyson does a great job of explaining complex processes, objects, and ideas while keeping a light tone with just the right amount of humor and sarcasm.
Super cool and a good variety of concepts.
Lively writing as always by Tyson. My only complaint, and the only reason this isn't 5 stars, is that since this is a collection of essays, he reintroduces concepts multiple times. We learn what the Principia is many times. Probably not so bad if you're reading, since you can just skip ahead but if you're listening to it (as I was) during a commute you start to become annoyed the 5th or 6th time you learn that the Principia is Newton's explanation of his three laws of motion or the 8th time you learn about Galileo.Another complaint about the Audio book is that it isn't read by Professor Tyson, strange since he's got a marvelous speaking voice and had his own show.These complaints are minor though. The book is a merry journey through the wonders and terrors of our universe, suitable for all ages.
I liked it a lot. The way it is written like you are chatting with the renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson is very appealing. He uses a language and vocabulary accessible to most of the people who graduated highschool. Also the examples he gives are simple and easy to understand.I would like to see a revised version of this book, one that includes the discoveries from the latest years.
An interesting look through the window to the world of physics, in the fantastical way only Neil deGrasse Tyson could. This book is almost a Cosmos in book form, it's a journey through well known and lesser so ares of physics and astronomy. It's not an un-putdownable one but I think that's the nature of books of this kind, it is interesting and fun, I would say read this if you enjoy Tysons TV work as it's in a similar style to that, less of a technical book and more for us laymen.
