My goal with this book is to inspire you to use the most powerful tool you have to achieve your dreams: imagination.Your imagination originates in your mind as a thought, and that thought becomes your reality, whether for good or bad. So, choose your thoughts carefully by focusing on the things you want and not what you don't want in your life. The cover of this book has a genie's lamp, similar to the one in the movie Aladdin. Just imagine you are Aladdin and the genie is the universe. When you rub the side of the lamp, that represents the action you need to take to achieve your dream. When you take that action, the genie appears and says, "Your wish is my command." That command is your request to the universe-your dream, which is inspired by your imagination.

This work provides the current theory and observations behind the cosmological phenomenon of dark energy. The approach is comprehensive with rigorous mathematical theory and relevant astronomical observations discussed in context. The book treats the background and history starting with the new-found importance of Einstein's cosmological constant (proposed long ago) in dark energy formulation, as well as the frontiers of dark energy. The authorsdo not presuppose advanced knowledge of astronomy, and basic mathematical concepts used in modern cosmology are presented in a simple, but rigorous way. All this makes the book useful for both astronomers and physicists, and also for university students of physical sciences.

This history of science analyzes how we came to be. It starts with life's origins and tracks the universe to present day, covering astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology and offering biographical details of science's greatest thinkers.
