Ferris, Timothy; Sagan, Carl (Introduction) The Red Limit: The Search for the Edge of the Universe
Quill 1983 068801836X / 9780688018368 Trade Paperback Near-Fine
Near-fine copy. NO remainder marks or price clippings - Illustrated with over 100 photographs. Tight spine, bright pages. 286 pages. NO writing, marks or tears inside book - For centuries, it was assumed that our universe was static. In the late 1920s, astronomers defeated this assumption with a startling new discovery. From Earth, the light of distant galaxies appeared to be red, meaning that those galaxies were receding from us. This led to the revolutionary realization that the universe is expanding. The Red Limit is the tale of this discovery, its ramifications, and the passionately competitive astronomers who charted the past, present, and future of the cosmos. Author Description Timothy Ferris, a Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award nominee, is the author of nine books, including The Whole Shebang, Coming of Age in the Milky Way, and The Mind's Sky. He is currently professor emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley.

Ferris, Timothy The Whole Shebang: A State-Of-The-Universes Report
Simon & Schuster 1997 0684810204 / 9780684810201 Hard Cover Fine Fine
Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $25.00. Tight spine, bright pages. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 395 pages. Synopsis: From the prizewinning author who has been called "the greatest science writer in the world" comes this delightfully comprehensive and comprehensible report on how science today envisions the universe as a whole. Timothy Ferris provides a clear, elegantly written overview of current research and a forecast of where cosmological theory is likely to go in the twenty-first century. He explores the questions that have occurred to even casual readers who are curious about nature on the largest scales: What does it mean to say that the universe is "expanding," or that space is "curved"? and sheds light on the possibility that our universe is only one among many universes, each with its own physical laws and prospects for the emergence of life.
