At first, the reader of this book may get the impression that the universe is just waiting for its apocalypse. But is it really worth being afraid of black holes, gamma-ray bursts and supernovae? And if there is cause for concern, is there anything we can do to save ourselves?
A witty and hilariously famous astrophysicist talks about the countless doomsday scenarios that space can bring down on us. Offering the reader fascinating and disturbing stories as if borrowed from science fiction, Philip Plait accompanies them with comments on how they can affect life on Earth and the Universe itself, if they come to life. But the author does not aim to impress the reader with sensational information: by analyzing one or another likely scenario, he shows how to prevent it.
This undeniably scientific yet accessible to the general reader is an excellent lesson in astronomy for beginners and a real treat for trained science lovers.
