Gravity's Mysteries by Louis Komzsik

Gravity is the most detectable physical phenomenon of the universe. Nothing or nobody can escape its grasp, even in very large, astronomical distances. It is manifested in many aspects of our lives. Yet we are still not really sure what carries it. The gradually increasing understanding of gravity throughout history and its observed effects in various physical fields are the subjects of this book. This is an enlightening read about one of the most misterious phenomena of our lives that is still far from being fully understood, presenting a historical journey through several millennia of encountering and understanding gravity's mysteries.
