Con La clave secreta del Universo el genial Stephen Hawking y su hija Lucy han conseguido acercar a los pequeños -y no tan pequeños- las maravillas y los secretos del Universo, y demostrarnos que la ciencia también puede ser divertida y apasionante.
A George nada le gusta tanto como mirar las estrellas. También le encantaría tener una computadora con la que navegar y conocer más sobre el Universo, pero sabe que eso es misión imposible. En casa, sus padres son tan ecologistas que no quieren ni oír hablar del progreso y la ciencia.
Pero lo que ellos no saben es que el enemigo está muy cerca. Acaba de llegar un nuevo vecino y ¡que horror!, es un eminente científico. Eso, para los padres de George, solo significa una cosa: peligro. Si hubieran imaginado lo que le esperaba a su hijo, nunca le habrían dejado entrar en su casa...
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Stephen Hawking, author of the multi-million copy bestselling A Brief History of Time, and his daughter Lucy provide a grand and funny adventure that explains fascinating information about our universe to readers of all ages, including Dr. Hawking's latest ideas about black holes.
It's the story of George, who's taken through the vastness of space by a scientist, his daughter, and their super-computer named Cosmos. George's parents, who have always been wary of technology, warn him about their new neighbors: Eric is a scientist and his daughter, Annie, seems to be following in his footsteps. But when George befriends them and Cosmos, he finds himself on a wildly fun adventure, while learning about physics, time, and the universe.
With Cosmos's help, he can travel to other planets and a black hole. But what would happen if the wrong people got their hands on Cosmos? George, Annie, and Eric aren't about to find out, and what ensues is a funny adventure that clearly explains the mysteries of science. Garry Parsons' energetic illustrations add humor and interest, and his scientific drawings add clarity.
