The edge of physics - dispatches from the frontiers of cosmology

Weaving together stories about the people and places at the heart of his research, while explaining the problems that scientists are trying to solve, the author provides a unique portrait of the universe and our quest to understand it. This book depicts science as a human process and brings cosmology - with all its rarefied concepts - back down to earth.
