## Description

Buy Science of Interstellar Illustrated by Kip Thorne, Christopher Nolan (ISBN: 9780393351378) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Comprehension without Mathematics - I think it is a sign of s great scientific mind that they can impart their work to others less able than themselves, a fundemental Tenet of teaching. Such scientists include Richard Feynman, Stephen Hawking and I would add to these Kip Thorne. As a sci-fi fan from childhood I was always interested in physics, astrophysics and astronomy, but lacked the mathematcical ability to pursuse these subjects very far in academia. Howver, I have aways maintained my interest and have a large selection fo 'popular science' books in the field, to which I have now added this volume. As a fan of everything Christopher Nolan has done (spot the reference ealrier in this review?), I enjoyed Interstellar, but was only recently reminded (buy Sheldon, Howard and the gang) of Kip Thorne's central role in bringing cosomology to the big screen. A couple of clicks later and I bought this excellent book, which I read (and yes understood) in a single sitting over the weekend. Though my maths isn't up to the challenge of higher calculus, my interlect does allow me to comprehend and appreciate the concepts involved. If anything these are even more mind blowing than can be captured in film. When I first read A Brief History of Time I was astonished that work colleagues far better qualified than I, could not get through the text. I did and understood it, which has lead to a lifetime of reading on quantum mechanics, cosmology, unified field theory (what we used to call the G.U.T.) and now gravitational waves. I'm crap at Sudoku so my intellectual challenge is to try and understand amazing facts and theories from great books like this by Kip Thorne. Whether you buy it or borrow it from a library, I do recommend you read this book and when you have watch Interstellar again with more informed eyes. I guarantee you'll enjoy the film on a whole new level, and if you like have a Chirstopher Nolan film night and amaze your friends with your dazzling insight. Extraordinay work made accesible by a Nobel Laureat, thank you Professor Thorne for allowing me to stand on your shoulders and see further. This is a superb book, highly recommended. BTG
Review: Life-changing book that anyone can read - I'll preface this by saying you really don't need to be a genius to get a lot out of this book, but a decent understanding of physics helps to make this an easier read - I only have a basic education and I loved and understood it all. This book is the perfect combination of story-telling and science; Kip Thorn does an incredible job of breaking up the technical talk with real-life events to do with the movie. He explains things so simply and in an easy-to-read format. The content itself genuinely has the potential to change how you understand the world around you - I loved every page of this book and would jump at any opportunity to talk about it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book. Great theme and content with excellent illustration
*by M***S on 30 May 2017*

Extremely interesting read. A lot of the detail is high level theoretical and astro-physics so to get the most out of it, it'll probably be more helpful if you are at least strongly inquisitive within these topics. I myself have no "academic" background in these areas so found a lot of it confusing but still an excellent read and something to really get your claws into if, like me, the film left you wanting more. It explains the background of the movie, chapter by chapter - and what was going through the mid of Kip during his work on interstellar. It is also exquisitely illustrated. with both photographs and diagrams to explain the theories being explored. It includes explanations of many of the complicated theories behind the movie and how they used science to make it as accurate as possible. There's also a bit of talk at the end about the whole "bookecase tesseract" scene which is actually extremely interesting - bridging the gap between what we do and do not know. In summary, a really good read for anyone left wanting more after the movie.
