Astronomy: At Play in the Cosmos

Astronomy: At Play in the Cosmos by Adam Frank
2016 | ISBN: 0393935221, 0393602982 | English | 545 pages | PDF | 72 MB

A textbook that is not written like a textbook.

Astronomy: At Play in the Cosmos brings popular science writing to a textbook. In every chapter, author Adam Frank―a co-writer of the NPR blog “13.7 Cosmos and Culture”―integrates two interviews with leading scientists, a fascinating second voice that drives the narrative while making astronomy feel immediate, relevant, and real for students, and still capturing science’s human nature.
