Book Description By Author:
Nowadays, astrophysics is looked more commonly as a tough academic major instead of a curiosity. Throughout my experience as a science communicator, it's been very clear that people love to learn such complex concepts when they are explained in the form of a story. For example, one may give a black hole a picture of a sci-fi portal to explain the concept in the form of a story. Every day my little sister and meet, and we enjoy this conversation about astrophysics. And she really loves to hear these concepts in the form of a story. And I could explain it to her effortlessly. So no matter if you are kid, a teen, an adult or an old man, we are gonna love to learn about our universe, explained in the form of a story. It's in the form of a story, so it's much more of a popular science than an academic one. As a science communicator, I have been making science easier for people through my bestselling books Astrophysics for non-mathematicians, Cosmology For A Newbie, etc. Creating "Astrophysics In The Form Of a Story" is another action of mine to make science easier for people.
This book is an alternative edition of the book "Astrophysics for Everyone" by the Author.
