Táto séria majstrovsky prepája vedu a fantasy, kde sú zákony nášho vesmíru aplikované na magickom svete s často komickými výsledkami. Sledujte, ako mágovia a vedci skúmajú neznáme, odhaľujú tajomstvá fyziky a astronómie v prostredí, kde je realita premenlivá a nebezpečná. Je to humorné aj poučné dobrodružstvo pre tých, ktorí sa radi smejú a zároveň sa učia o fungovaní sveta.
When a wizardly experiment goes adrift, the wizards of Unseen University find themselves with a pocket universe on their hands: Roundworld, where neither magic nor common sense seems to stand a chance against logic. The Universe, of course, is our own. And Roundworld is Earth. As the wizards watch their accidental creation grow, we follow the story of our universe from the primal singularity of the Big Bang to the internet and beyond
Acclaimed The Science of Discworld centred around an original Pratchett story about the wizards of Discworld.
They know the creatures who lived there escaped the impending Big Freeze by inventing the space elevator - they even intervened to rid the planet of a plague of elves, who attempted to divert humanity onto a different time track. Can the God of Evolution come to humanity's aid and ensure Darwin writes a very different book?
The fourth book in the Science of Discworld series deals with the really big questions: God, the Universe and Everything Else. Pratchett's brilliant new Discworld story JUDGEMENT DAY is annotated with very big footnotes (interleaving chapters) by mathematician Ian Stewart and biologist Jack Cohen, to bring you a mind-mangling combination of fiction, science and philosophy.
