Numerous illustrations, photos & drawings."The author blends a crisp style with an unusual selection of photographs to reveal the birth & death of stars & planets & the emergence of intelligent life. The prospects for life on other planets & the chances for contact with intelligent beings in other solar systems are discussed. The author's observations of Rutherford, Darwin, Urey & other pioneer scientists add a compelling human element to the story. This book is one of those rareties in science & literature--a lucid & fascinating scientific discussion of the most fundamental questions regarding the origin of the world."--excerpt
