He explains things I always wondered about without diminishing the star-gazer's sense of awe.' -- Mark Kurlansky, author of <i>Salt</i> and <i>Cod</i> 'Berman's pitch-perfect book goes a long way to answering the questions you thought were too dumb to ask, but it does much more than simply provide facts...

Above all, the author's enthusiasm for science shines through' * Wall Street Journal on The Sun's Heartbeat * 'Deeply enjoyable...
