En 'Ciclos del tiempo', Roger Penrose, Premio Nobel de Física 2020, presenta una visión revolucionaria de la cosmología, explorando qué pudo haber existido antes del Big Bang. A través de un análisis profundo de la Segunda Ley de la Termodinámica y la geometría de conos de luz del espacio-tiempo, Penrose propone que el destino final de nuestro universo en expansión podría ser el 'big bang' de uno nuevo. El autor examina modelos cosmológicos, la radiación cósmica de microondas y la desaparición de agujeros negros mediante la evaporación de Hawking. Una obra esencial para los amantes de la ciencia que deseen explorar los secretos del universo y su pasado, presente y futuro.

Sir Roger Penrose is an English mathematician, mathematical physicist, and philosopher of science. He is Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford, an emeritus fellow of Wadham College, Oxford, and an honorary fellow of St John's College, Cambridge, and University College London. He shared the 1988 Wolf Prize in Physics with Stephen Hawking for the Penrose–Hawking singularity theorems, and the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics "for the discovery that black hole formation is a robust prediction of the general theory of relativity". He proposed the Penrose triangle and corresponded with M. C. Escher, influencing his Waterfall and Ascending and Descending. Penrose's eponymous aperiodic tiling presaged the discovery of quasicrystals by Dan Shechtman.
