Riassunto

The award-winning science writer takes on key questions about the origin and evolution of the cosmos, laying out what we currently know about the universe as a whole and letting readers judge for themselves whether modern cosmology is in a state of crisis. He explains basic concepts of gravity, motion, and light, discusses methods of mapping the Milky Way, traces the discovery of universal expansion and evidence for the Big Bang, and compares current models of the cosmos. Includes less-than-dazzling color and b&w illustrations and photos. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
