Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Selected as a Book of the Year by Mail on Sunday and Financial Times 66 million years ago, a ten-mile-wide object from outer space hurtled into the Earth at incredible speed and destroyed the dinosaurs, along with three-quarters of the other species on the planet. Where did it come from, and why? And how is this connected to dark matter the most mysterious, elusive stuff in the universe, that interacts with gravity like ordinary matter but doesnt emit or absorb light. Astronomers know its there but it is literally invisible. Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs tells the story of Big Bang theory, cosmological inflation, the makeup of the universe and our solar systems place in it; its about mass extinctions through the ages, what we know has hit the Earth and what might hit us in the future. And it explores the radical idea that dark matter might ultimately have been responsible for the dinosaurs extinction. A horizon-expanding tour of the cosmos that blends what we know about the universe with new thinking, Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs is a book full of wonders, from a gifted scientist and writer. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition black boards/black spine/blue spine lettering contained in a near fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Lisa Randall; Introduction; Acknowledgments; List of Illustrations; Supplementary Reading; Index and About the Author. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs, black-and-white drawings, tables, and pie charts. Light rubbing at the upper right jacket tip and lower front right board edge (see photographs); the jacket is otherwise in fine condition. "World-renowned physicist Lisa Randall brings a fresh twist to one of the world's oldest murder mysteries: the death of the dinosaurs. With lively writing and wonderfully accessible explanations, she now convincingly implicates a new suspect as ultimately responsible for the hit: a novel kind of dark matter." - Max Tegmark, physicist. "Only Lisa Randall can take us on such a thrilling scientific journey - from dinosaurs to DNA to comets to dark matter and to the past and future of our species. Randall's research is so thorough, the story so powerful, and her storytelling so compelling that I could not put this book down." - Diddhartha Mukherjee, physician and author. "A provocative and revealing account of how scientists like herself are uncovering deep connections between human existence and the wider universe. A terrific read." - Timothy Ferris, Emeritus Professor, University of California, Berkeley and author. "Lisa Randall has produced an intriguing, insightful book that brilliantly weaves together the disparate subjects of cosmology and biology, hypothesizing dark matter as the instigator of Oort Cloud disruption, leading to a chain of events that eventually causes the extinction of non-avian dinosaurs. A simple, elegant theory that finally makes sense of mass extinctions. A must-read for anyone interestd in the precariousness of life on earth." - Jack Horner, MacArthur Fellow and author. "Bestselling author of Warped Passages and Knocking on Heaven's Door and one of today's most influential and highly cited theoretical physicists, Professor Lisa Randall once again effortlessly delivers fascinating science to the general reader. Weaving together the cosmos' history and our own in an expanding intellectual adventure story, Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs takes us from the mysteries of dark matter and our cosmic environment to the conditions for life on Earth. Sixty-six million years ago, an object the size of a city descended from space to crash into Earth, creating a cataclysm that killed off the dinosaurs, along with three-quarters of the other species on the planet. What was its origin? Randall proposes it was a comet that was dislodged from its orbit as the Solar System passed through a disk of dark matter that is embedded in the plane of the Milky Way. Her research challenges the usual assumptions about the simple nature of dark matter and demonstrates how scientists formulate and establish new ideas. In a sense, it might have been dark matter that killed the dinosaurs. With her unique and wde-ranging perspective, Randall connects dark matter to the history of the world in the broadest terms. Bringing in pop culture and social and political viewpoints, she shares with us the latest findings - established and speculative - regarding dark matter, the cosmos, the galaxy, asteriods, comets, and impacts, as well as life's development and extinctions. Randall makes clear how connected the planet is to the makeup of the Universe, but also how fragile our place in the Universe, which evolved over billions of years, might be. In this brilliant and fresh exploration of our cosmic environment, Professor Randall explains the underlying science of our world in the breathtaking tale of a Universe in which the small and the large, the visible and the hidden are intimately related." - excerpt from the jacket flaps.
