Taking the "gravitational wave event" that attracted global attention in June 2016 as a clue, the author of this book reviews the entire process from Einstein's prediction of the existence of gravitational waves in the general theory of relativity to human detection of gravitational waves. He introduces the most cutting-edge scientific research trends in the world today, and also introduces the large amount of work that our country has done in the exploration of gravitational waves.

It has opened up the career and opened up the thinking pattern. The value of gravitational waves lies in finding value, and the meaning lies in discovering meaning. This is its huge role. What general relativity brings us is the control of time resources. May the future be better!
Zhang Xuanzhong's descriptions in the book are very vivid and impressed me deeply. For example, his interpretation of Einstein's famous saying "Imagination is more important than knowledge" is very interesting. Moreover, he himself is a passionate and talented science popularization writer. This book is the result of his many years of accumulation and is well worth reading!
