Stardust by John Gribbin
Everything we see, touch, breathe and smell, nearly every molecule in our bodies, is the by-product of stars as they live and die in explosions, scattering material across the universe which is recycled to become part of us. Taking us on an enthralling journey, the author shows us the scientific breakthroughs in the quest for our origins.
John Gribbin is one of today's greatest writers of popular science and the author of bestselling books, including In Search of Schrodinger's Cat, Science: A History and Deep Simplicity. He is famous to his many fans for making complex ideas simple, and says that his aim in his writing - much of it done with his wife, Mary Gribbin - is to share with his readers his sense of wonder at the strangeness of the universe. John Gribbin trained as an astrophysicist at Cambridge University and is currently Visiting Fellow in Astronomy at the University of Sussex.
