Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
A beautifully written and accessible history of humanity’s attempts to understand our place in the cosmos.
MoreLong description:
We have always looked up at the sky and wondered.&&&160;
Ever since the ancient Babylonians began to track celestial objects on clay tablets, scientific inquiry has been driven by the innately human desire to understand what is out there, and where we fit in among it all.&&&160;
In this wonderful book, Dr Sarah Alam Malik&&&160;&&&160;takes us on a journey through the discoveries that have propelled and continually overturned our perception of the cosmos. From Aristotle’s Earth-centred worldview&&&160;to the Copernican revolution and Isaac Newton unifying the terrestrial and celestial under the law of gravity, fascination about our universe has never diminished.&&&160;
One of the marvels of our existence is that we can imagine worlds far beyond our own, from the fiery deaths of faraway suns to the search for life beyond Earth. This capacity to share a much grander and more mysterious reality may be among the greatest privileges life has to offer. This is the story so far.&&&160;
A Brief History of the Universe (and our place in it) is at once a fascinating story of discovery and a beautiful celebration of our endless curiosity.&&&160;
