Local Description1980, First edition. A near fine copy only marked by sunfading at the tip of the spine. The d/w is unclipped and very good with light edge rubbing and sunfading of the spine. DescriptionStarseekers charts the voyage of man's discovery of the universe, from Stonehenge and the pyramids to the Theory of Relativity and the discovery of black holes, quasars and pulsars. Drawing from many branches of knowledge for an original vision of this intellectual quest, Colin Wilson's direct and challenging history of cosmology embraces religion, philosophy, science and mathematics; and its focus on the lives of the seminal thinkers captures the adventure and romance of the struggle to unlock the riddle of the Cosmos. |
