The History of the Universe Springer | Astronomy & Cosmology | November 7, 2015 | ISBN-10: 3319227432 | 120 pages | pdf | 2.31 mb by David H. Lyth (Author) An outstanding book on the cosmological history of the universe, this book explains not only what happened, but why it happened Explains both cosmology and the underlying physics for readers who are not familiar with the mathematics of physics Suitable for recommendation as "additional reading" for university courses in general astronomy, astrophysics or cosmology. But also suitable for highschool students About this book This book gives an accessible account of the history of the Universe; not only what happened, but why it happened. An author of textbooks on the early Universe and inflation, David Lyth now explains both cosmology and the underlying physics to the general reader. The book includes a detailed account of the almost imperceptible structure in the early Universe, and its probable origin as a quantum fluctuation during an early epoch known as the epoch of inflation. It also explains how that early structure is visible now in the cosmic microwave radiation which is our main source of information about the early Universe, and how it gave rise to galaxies and stars
