Acclaimed by Nature as "excellent and uncompromising," this lively narrative traces the development of modern cosmology. It ranges from gravitational theories of Newton and Einstein to recent discoveries — supernovae, pulsars, X-ray sources, active galaxies, radio sources, and quasars — and offers an in-depth exploration of the Big Bang. 1982 edition.
