Understanding
the universe
Dutton
New York City, New York
This Way to the Universe celebrates
the ongoing effort to understand the
nature of reality. Theoretical physicist
Michael Dine noticed there was no
single book to recommend for the
layperson
to find
out more
about the
Big Bang,
dark matter,
the Higgs
Boson, and
more — so
he wrote it
himself.

the solar system

and missteps of putting imaging
instruments into space, from the
