The nation's favourite scientist looks at the origins of life in our Universe. For somehow the laws of nature conspired to create a naked ape that can look up at the stars and wonder where it came from. For as long as humans have walked the Earth we have searched for our place in the cosmos. We have looked to the heavens and the Earth and to the precious nature of human life. But perhaps most importantly of all, we have driven ourselves to do something that is, as far as we know, unique in the Universe. We ask questions. In Brian Cox's latest groundbreaking book he tackles some of the greatest questions that humans have asked to try and understand the very nature of ourselves and the Universe in which we live. He looks at the journeys we've taken to answer these questions; through the endless leaps of human minds, he explores the extraordinary depth of our knowledge today and where our curiosity may lead us in the future. He reveals how time, physics and chemistry came together to create a creature that can wonder at its own existence, blessed with an unquenchable thirst to discover not just where it came from, but how it can think, where it is going and if it is alone. Human Universe is Brian Cox's personal take on the past, present and future of humanity - from the birth of the Universe to the ultimate fate of our species. It will transport you out of this world into a whole new dimension as it gives us a new perspective on human life.
