Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First UK edition. Very good in very good dust jacket. SIGNED by the author on the title page (signature only). 1st UK edition, no numberline ( 1st printing).Dust jacket has edgewear, a scratch, tape-removal scars on the inner flaps, and a small closed tear. Muller received his physics PhD under Nobel Prize winner Luis Alvarez and is currently a professor of physics at UC Berkeley. He is the author of "Now: The Physics of Time" and "Physics for Future Presidents: The Science Behind the Headlines". "Nemesis" discusses the theory that a killer star is orbiting the sun, releasing a barrage of comets every 26 million years, eg, being responsible for the dinosaur extinction event. Although the theory has since been discredited, it was taken sufficiently seriously in its time to be examined using a variety of sophisticated technologies and statistical methods. Despite this, the narrative of how a scientific hypothesis is generated and examined remains a fascinating read. Rare signed. Where possible, all books come with dust jacket in a clear protective plastic sleeve, sealed in a ziplock bag, wrapped in bubble wrap, shipped in a box. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 002946
