Synopsis
From the flickering lights of ancient campfires to the glowing pixels of modern telescopes, “The Star: From Ancient Myths to Modern Science” takes readers on a dazzling journey through humanity’s timeless relationship with the heavens.
Author Anand Kumar Mishra explores how early civilizations—from Mesopotamia and Vedic India to Greece, China, and the Americas—looked up at the night sky and saw divine order, mythic heroes, and cosmic meaning. As knowledge grew, so did curiosity: from Ptolemy’s spheres to Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, and Einstein, our understanding of stars evolved from sacred symbols to cosmic forges of light and matter.
Bringing together astronomy, philosophy, art, and spirituality, this book reveals how the stars have shaped not just science, but the very imagination of humankind. It’s a story of wonder, discovery, and the eternal question: What is our place in the universe?
A perfect read for lovers of cosmos, mythology, astrophysics, and the history of ideas, this book bridges the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science with poetic clarity.
