具体描述
A journey through the otherworldly science behind Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film, Interstellar, from executive producer and theoretical physicist Kip Thorne.
Interstellar, from acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan, takes us on a fantastic voyage far beyond our solar system. Yet in The Science of Interstellar, Kip Thorne, the physicist who assisted Nolan on the scientific aspects of Interstellar, shows us that the movie’s jaw-dropping events and stunning, never-before-attempted visuals are grounded in real science. Thorne shares his experiences working as the science adviser on the film and then moves on to the science itself. In chapters on wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and much more, Thorne’s scientific insights—many of them triggered during the actual scripting and shooting of Interstellar—describe the physical laws that govern our universe and the truly astounding phenomena that those laws make possible.

##近半年的地铁读物
评分##The Science of Interstellar
评分##书，比电影好看。其中许多概念，不陌生，不过贵在概念下的数学，像飘浮在半空的“悟”下面，一级级铺上来的台阶。听说、知道，跟会做能做，一个地上，一个天上。自己缺乏空间想象力，书里很多地方读不透。
评分##The Science of Interstellar
评分##By physical laws we humans discover decipher master and use to control our own fate, dealing with mist catastrophe the universe may throw at us.
评分##从比较基础的东西讲起，但看得还是挺累，有些也没看明白。黑洞行星的轨迹太牛了。
评分##这不是科普书，是一本严肃的科学文献，对读者要求高，需要过硬的数学物理知识。所以反而没了读懂的压力，除了迷人的teserract（超立方体）章节读得仔细，其余畅快的浏览。推荐边观影边读，启示：科学怎么对视效妥协，如把无法视觉化的高维用三维来达意和讲故事。
评分##感到智商受了碾压。评分这么高，诸位想必都是看懂了的。最后斗胆揣测一下，Kip Thorne写这本书感觉像是在说，“看吧我在电影里应用的科学理论和假设都是高大上并且准确的你们看不懂电影就来看书看不懂书那我也没辙了反正我就是好莱坞最屌的物理学家[摊手]”。
评分##平易近人。与Kip Thorne可算是"相逢恨晚"了 :)
