La Bible racontée comme un roman
Par Christine Pedotti. 2015
Racontée par Christine Pedotti, la Bible devient une véritable saga. Rien n'a été inventé, tout vient de ce texte sacré.…
Le résultat est lumineux : des histoires que l'on croyait connaître, comme celles de Noé, Adam et Eve, Sodome et Gomorrhe, dont on découvre le vrai sens, et d'autres, enfouies dans les pages de la Bible, qui surgissent pour notre plus grand bonheur : la ruse de Rébecca, le coup de foudre pour Rachel, la jalousie des frères de Joseph... Pour les croyants, la Bible est la Vérité qui décrit la relation entre Dieu et les hommes. Mais elle est aussi le miroir de l'humanité, dans sa bonté comme dans ses côtés les plus sombres. 2015. Titre uniforme: Bible.Discours sur l'origine de l'univers
Par Étienne Klein. 2010

nous. Et dès qu'un discours prétend nous éclairer, nous tendons l'oreille, avides d'entendre l'écho du tout premier signal : les accélérateurs de particules vont bientôt nous révéler l'origine de l'univers en produisant des big bang sous terre ; les données recueillies par le satellite Planck nous dévoiler le visage de Dieu ; certains disent même qu'en vertu de la loi de la gravitation l'univers a pu se créer de lui-même, à partir de rien... Le grand dévoilement ne serait donc devenu qu'une affaire d'ultimes petits pas ? Rien n'est moins sûr... Car de quoi parle la physique quand elle parle d' origine ? Qu'est-ce que les théories actuelles sont réellement en mesure de nous révéler ? À bien les examiner, les perspectives que nous offre la cosmologie contemporaine sont plus vertigineuses encore que tout ce que nous avons imaginé : l'univers a-t-il jamais commencé ?

Par Neil DeGrasse Tyson. 2017
What is the nature of space and time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the universe fit…
within us? Few of us have time to contemplate the cosmos, so Tyson brings the universe down to Earth succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in digestible chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day. While waiting for your morning coffee to brew, or while waiting for the bus, the train, or the plane to arrive, "Astrophysics for people in a hurry" will reveal just what you need to be fluent and ready for the next cosmic headlines: from the Big Bang to black holes, from quarks to quantum mechanics, and from the search for planets to the search for life in the universe.

théories. Puis il explique la relativité et son rôle dans notre vie quotidienne, pour ensuite analyser les théories de la relativité spéciale et de la relativité générale. Il poursuit en décrivant la façon dont ces idées étonnantes ont ouvert la voie à une toute nouvelle interprétation des forces de l'univers, de la puissance que recèle le noyau d'un atome au comportement des corps célestes qui peuplent l'espace. -- 4e de couvMy first word touch and feel

Par Avis Lang, Neil DeGrasse Tyson. 2019
“Extraordinary.… A feast of history, an expert tour through thousands of years of war and conquest.” —Jennifer Carson, New York…
Times Book Review In this far-reaching foray into the millennia-long relationship between science and military power, acclaimed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-author Avis Lang examine how the methods and tools of astrophysics have been enlisted in the service of war. Spanning early celestial navigation to satellite-enabled warfare, Accessory to War is a richly researched and provocative examination of the intersection of science, technology, industry, and power that will introduce Tyson’s millions of fans to yet another dimension of how the universe has shaped our lives and our world.The end of everything: (astrophysically speaking)
