What is the difference between the brief and the briefer history in time by hawking?
Thanks
Thanks
The brief history in time refers to the popular science book "A Brief History of Time" written by Stephen Hawking, which discusses various topics in physics and cosmology. On the other hand, the briefer history in time refers to the revised and updated version of the book, titled "A Briefer History of Time", which was published later and covers some additional topics.
It depends on your level of understanding of physics and cosmology. If you are new to these topics, it is recommended to start with "A Brief History of Time" as it provides a more in-depth explanation of the concepts. However, if you are already familiar with these topics and want a more concise and updated version, "A Briefer History of Time" would be a better choice.
No, "A Briefer History of Time" is not just a shorter version of "A Brief History of Time". It includes some additional topics and updates from recent developments in the field of physics and cosmology. It also has a different structure and writing style compared to the original book.
Both "A Brief History of Time" and "A Briefer History of Time" are written for a general audience and do not require a background in physics. However, some concepts may be challenging to grasp without prior knowledge, and it is recommended to have a basic understanding of physics and math to fully comprehend the topics discussed in the books.
Apart from the additional topics and updates, there are some minor differences in the content and structure of the two books. For example, "A Briefer History of Time" has fewer pages and includes more illustrations and diagrams to aid in understanding the concepts. However, the core message and ideas remain the same in both books.
