Looking for Earths by Ap Boss

At the end of a century marked by many frustrated quests to find other solar systems, astronomers have discovered Jupiter-sized gas planets orbiting suns like ours in other solar systems. Alan Boss examines how these explorers have profoundly altered our view of the universe.
"As an historical account of the long history of planet finding it is very good, and if you also want a detailed account of the workings of NASA committees then it is ideal" (Chemistry in Britain, November 2000)
