With the most current research available, The Book of the Cosmos reveals the mysteries of our universe through the words of the scientists who uncovered them. Classic and new essays by such luminaries as Carl Sagan, Geoffrey Marcy, and Paul Butler explore all the fundamental concepts of cosmology, from the Big Bang down to the atomic structure of life on our planet. Along the way, hot topics such as the potential for intelligent extraterrestrial life and inflationary universes are debated, and the roles of celestial entities like comets, asteroids, quasars, and pulsars are defined.
Both highly readable and extraordinarily thorough, this book is bound to become a valued treasure for astronomy enthusiasts and professionals alike.
