«El universo desbocado» is Paul Davies's popular science essay, published by Biblioteca Científica Salvat in 1985 (204 pages, in Spanish).
It starts from the Big Bang and describes how the universe moves towards its disintegration: the Sun will burn out, galaxies will stop shining, and spacetime could collapse into black holes that would eventually merge. Davies also asks whether human intelligence could survive in the remote future through advanced technology and cosmic engineering, while the cosmos tends towards disorder.
Book from the Biblioteca Científica Salvat collection, number 1. The text comes from the original «Runaway Universe», published in 1978. Paperback format, 204 pages. Includes black-and-white photographs.
For readers interested in astrophysics and cosmology seeking a classic popular science work on the origin and fate of the universe.
