书籍简介

1. 彭罗斯的畅销杰作《通向实在之路》为我们理解目前公认的宇宙法则提供了一个赏心悦目的综合指南。作者的目标是要尽可能清晰地描述当代对宇宙的认识，揭示出其中深刻的美学意蕴和哲学内涵，以及复杂的逻辑关联。《通向实在之路》极富挑战性，语言娓娓道来，叙事非常流畅，更兼有几百幅作者手绘的精美插图。它不要求读者具有专门的背景知识，书的前几章提供的重要的数学基础为探索后面的物理理论做了准备。

从这里，我们能够了解物理学各个不同门类在科学上所起的作用；学到微积分和现代几何学的众多神奇概念；知晓量子力学的基础和冲突；明了什么是粒子物理学标准模型；什么是宇宙学、大爆炸、黑洞；什么是热力学第二定律的深刻挑战；何谓弦论和M理论；何谓圈量子引力；看到各种科学新潮以及新的发展方向。

Nobel Prize-winner Roger Penrose, one of the most accomplished scientists of our time, presents the only comprehensive--and comprehensible--account of the physics of the universe. A guide to physics' big picture, and to the thoughts of one of the world's most original thinkers."--The New York Times From the very first attempts by the Greeks to grapple with the complexities of our known world to the latest application of infinity in physics, The Road to Reality carefully explores the movement of the smallest atomic particles and reaches into the vastness of intergalactic space. Here, Penrose examines the mathematical foundations of the physical universe, exposing the underlying beauty of physics and giving us one the most important works in modern science writing.

2. 彭罗斯的畅销杰作《通向实在之路》（2005）为我们理解目前公认的宇宙法则提供了一个赏心悦目的综合指南。在《宇宙的轮回》里，他又进了一步，提出崭新的宇宙学图景，为人们常问的“大爆炸之前发生了什么”，呈现了一个不可思议的回答。

彭罗斯在本书说明了如何可以将我们加速膨胀宇宙的命运解读为一个新生的“大爆炸”。同时，彭罗斯没有用任何复杂的数学公式，详细讨论了很多基本要素和它们的作用，读者还能看到五花八门的标准或不标准的宇宙学模型，宇宙微波背景的基本而无所不在的作用。以及星系核心的巨大黑洞和它们通过神秘的霍金蒸发过程的消失……

This groundbreaking book presents a new perspective on three of cosmology's essential questions: What came before the Big Bang? What is the source of order in our universe? And what cosmic future awaits us? Penrose shows how the expected fate of our ever-accelerating and expanding universe--heat death or ultimate entropy--can actually be reinterpreted as the conditions that will begin a new "Big Bang." 

He details the basic principles beneath our universe, explaining various standard and non-standard cosmological models, the fundamental role of the cosmic microwave background, the paramount significance of black holes, and other basic building blocks of contemporary physics. Intellectually thrilling and widely accessible, Cycles of Time is a welcome new contribution to our understanding of the universe from one of our greatest mathematicians and thinkers. 

作者简介

罗杰·彭罗斯是牛津大学的鲁斯·鲍尔名誉数学教授。他获得了许多奖项和奖励，包括2020年诺贝尔物理学奖，以表彰他在黑洞形成方面的工作，以及1988年沃尔夫物理学奖，他与霍金共同分享该奖，以表彰他们对我们理解宇宙的共同贡献。他的书包括《宇宙的轮回》、《通往实在之路》、《空间和时间的性质》（他与霍金共同撰写）和《皇帝的新思想》。他曾在全美各大学进行过广泛的演讲。他住在牛津。

Roger Penrose is Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at Oxford University. He has received a number of prizes and awards, including the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on black hole formation, as well as the 1988 Wolf Prize for physics, which he shared with Stephen Hawking for their joint contribution to our understanding of the universe. His books include Cycles of Time, The Road to Reality, The Nature of Space and Time, which he wrote with Hawking, and The Emperor's New Mind. He has lectured extensively at universities throughout America. He lives in Oxford.
