About this listen

Ragnarok. Armageddon. Doomsday. Since the dawn of time, man has wondered how the world would end. In The Last Three Minutes, Paul Davies reveals the latest theories.

It might end in a whimper, slowly scattering into the infinite void. Then again, it might be yanked back by its own gravity and end in a catastrophic "Big Crunch". There are other more frightening possibilities. We may be seconds away from doom at this very moment.

Voiced in clear language that makes the cutting-edge science of quarks, neutrinos, wormholes, and metaverses accessible to the layman, The Last Three Minutes treats listeners to a wide range of conjectures about the ultimate fate of the universe. Along the way, it takes the occasional divergent path to discuss some slightly less cataclysmic topics such as galactic colonization, what would happen if the Earth were struck by the comet Swift-Tuttle (a distinct possibility), the effects of falling in a black hole, and how to create a "baby universe".

Wonderfully morbid to the core, this is one of the most original science audiobooks to come along in years.

Guess this gem of a book has been hidden. The book explained a lot of concepts about sub-atomic particles, the first and the last three minutes of the existence of the Universe in good, plain, simple language.

Cosmology at its best

I like the way the author describes some of the most difficult science in easy sentences and puts the reader/listener at ease.
