'A wonderful book about the science, history and mythology of 21 stars (and 3 impostors).' Dr David Whitehouse
Look up on a clear evening, and you'll see thousands of stars shining in the night sky, each telling a story of their own. With star maps to help easily identify key celestial bodies, astronomer Giles Sparrow takes 21 stars (and three impostors) to look at what each pinprick of light can tell us about the birth, life and death of our universe.
From red giants to supernovae and from stellar cities to our own Sun, The History of Our Universe in 21 Stars shows how the lights we see in the sky can help us unravel the mysteries of the cosmos.
'Beautifully written and extremely accessible ... It's extremely difficult to put down! Gemma Lavender
