Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I wrote this book because of a my personal need to understand one of Nature's most mysterious ingredients - Space... But I have also learned that to completely understand how 'nothing can be something' you have to do more than just state the physics. Most popular books dwell on the physics of space, time and gravity, but in the end you, the reader, walk away even more confused about it all - and frankly, so do I. What I try to do in this book is to explore a number of personal experiences, some very weird, and to take advantage of the human gift for using imagination creatively. You will find that by being more flexible in thinking visually, and by using the talents found in the right-side of your brain, it is far easier to grasp what space is all about, and how it is that darkness can have a shape and texture. You may even discover for yourself why it is that even some professional astronomers like myself are afraid of the dark. I have included many personal anecdotes in the book to serve as a human anchor for exploring space as a physical thing. 98% of what you are, and what the universe is, is hidden in the invisible fields and dark energies that ply the Void. Our challenge is to make peace with this new information, the terrible fate of our species and cosmos, and to take some brief comfort in the joy of a living universe bathed in light. So, please enjoy this book, buy as many copies of it as you can afford to (;>) and take a walk on the wild-side of astronomy!
