{"product_id":"2940171816070","title":"God's Equation: Einstein, Relativity, and the Expanding Universe","description":"Are we on the verge of solving the riddle of creation using Einstein's \"greatest blunder\"?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a work that is at once lucid, exhilarating and profound, renowned mathematician Dr. Amir Aczel, critically acclaimed author of \u003cb\u003eFermat's Last Theorem\u003c\/b\u003e, takes us into the heart of science's greatest mystery. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn January 1998, astronomers found evidence that the cosmos is expanding at an ever-increasing rate. The way we perceive the universe was changed forever. The most compelling theory cosmologists could find to explain this phenomenon was Einstein's cosmological constant, a theory he conceived--and rejected---over eighty years ago. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on newly discovered letters of Einstein--many translated here for the first time--years of research, and interviews with prominent mathematicians, cosmologists, physicists, and astronomers, Aczel takes us on a fascinating journey into \"the strange geometry of space-time,\" and into the mind of a genius. Here the unthinkable becomes real: an infinite, ever-expanding, ever-accelerating universe whose only absolute is the speed of light. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAwesome in scope, thrilling in detail, \u003cb\u003eGod's Equation\u003c\/b\u003e is storytelling at its finest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom the Trade Paperback edition.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150987116784,"sku":"2940171816070","price":14.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940171816070_p0.jpg?v=1763745612","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940171816070","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
