Very informative and such a smol, inviting book ☺️ An easy book to pick up especially if you’re looking to get a bit lost 😅 in the science theory that makes up a black hole 🤩
Janna Levin’s ‘Black Hole Survival Guide’ was fun for the most parts. And then Levin started talking about some difficult things like ‘Evaporation’ and ‘Hologram’, which went way above my head, and I read those chapters twice, looked up more information online, and returned to the book with a sense of resignation. Maybe, that is just me. A person, who is more enthusiastic than me, about this dark subject, would find the book even more enjoyable. I loved the illustrations, and all the analogies. The only complaint though is, Levin shouldn’t have thrown all those goats into the black holes for her experiments. Throwing mountains and stars are acceptable.
Fascinating and informative and perhaps about as clearly as one could every explain the physics of this incredible phenomenon.
