Big Bang, Black Holes, No Math by David Toback
David Toback's (Texas A&M University) publication answers the calls of students and instructors!
Big Bang, Black Holes, No Math is a one-of-a-kind publication that shares with the reader just how exciting the universe has been throughout its history in a way non-majors can understand, enjoy and appreciate.
Featuring a minimal-math hands-on approach to cosmology and written in a language that anyone can understand, Big Bang, Black Holes, No Math takes head-on the myth that these topics can't be taught effectively without the math. Vetted by top cosmologists, particle physics and astronomers, the book is full of useful analogies and illustrations.
