INTRODUCTION
The discussions provided during this booklet are provided within the desire that they might help
the layman, the start pupil, and maybe, even a number of the extra complicated
students of cosmology, within the success of an method of the technological know-how that's
based upon basic realizing instead of upon the advanced and sometimes complicated
lattice-work of summary arithmetic which has been erected approximately it.
While it really is actual that the language of arithmetic is a common language, it's,
nevertheless, a language which needs to be discovered prior to it may be used or understood.
There are many people on the earth this day who wish to collect a better
knowledge and figuring out of the character of the universe approximately them, yet who
have by no means had the chance to familiarize themselves with the language of
mathematics to some extent that may allow them to keep on with the trails in which
this wisdom is frequently presented.
It was once mostly for those individuals that this e-book used to be written. hence, easy
discussion, rationalization and analogy could be substituted for arithmetic, to the best attainable measure. we are going to danger, thereby, the scorn of the mathematician, yet may possibly achieve the gratitude and
the comprehension of the non-math student.
Much of the cloth awarded in those pages used to be taken from a chain of lectures
originally written for the nice Western college, and from the booklet, "Steps to the
Stars," which used to be first released a few years in the past, yet whose uncomplicated options are just
now starting to be approved via cosmologists.
Since the learn of cosmology embraces the microcosm in addition to the macrocosm,
we will start this article with a attention of the main minute and primary
particles of nature, insofar as they're recognized and understood this day. we'll
examine the forces which bind those debris jointly, yet which could additionally, below
certain conditions, hurl them violently apart.
Physicists may perhaps criticize the ebook as being over simplified, but as we proceed our
examination of its textual content we may well locate, to our shock, that the majority of the innumerable
laws or principles of physics, that have been discovered via such a lot of years of sufferer
observation, try out, and interpretation, may very well be anticipated by means of the reader, even
though he may perhaps by no means have heard of these legislation or ob-served them in operation.
