Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents astronomy as not just a science, but as a way of knowing the world and our place in it. The author argues that astronomy is far more than a collection of facts and theories about the stars and planets. Rather, it is a way of thinking about the universe and our place within it. Astronomy has its roots in prehistory, when people first began to observe the stars and planets and to wonder about their significance. Over the centuries, astronomy has evolved into a sophisticated science, but it has never lost its power to inspire awe and wonder. This book is about the history of astronomy, its methods, and its major discoveries. But it is also about the human side of astronomy, the stories of the people who have devoted their lives to understanding the universe. This book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in astronomy or in the history of science. It is a book that will change the way you think about the world and your place in it.
