Sinopsis
Ideal as a supplement or recommended reading for students with little or no science background, this inviting text generates enthusiasm for astronomy in the fashion of the books of the late Carl Sagan. Written by a highly renowned educator and science writer, On the Cosmic Horizon highlights ten of the most important astronomical mysteries that will dominate the newspaper headlines over the next decades―and could be solved in our lifetime. The mysteries are presented in a countdown approach, with Mystery #1 appearing in the final chapter. The author also introduces a few fundamental astronomical concepts in each chapter, allowing students to gradually build their understanding. Sure to capture students' attention and imagination, On the Cosmic Horizon is a perfect primer for readers who want to explore and understand what is happening on the frontiers of astronomy.
