Description
The cosmos is a very big place indeed and most people find it rather too enormous. Hence, this very small book takes the reader on a clever little journey through it all. Packed with information on everything from Supernovae to Galaxy Clusters and Black Holes, as well as all the latest theories about how it might have come into being, this is probably the densest, and certainly the greenest book ever written on the Universe in the Universe. It is printed in sepia inks on 100 per cent recycled papers.
