Galaxies & stars
Paperback. Galaxies are the building blocks of the Universe: standing like islands in space, they are where the stars are born and where many extraordinary and little-understood phenomena can be observed. Here, renowned science writer John Gribbin explores what we have learnt about the cosmos through studying both our own galaxy and our distant neighbours. Series: Very Short Introductions. Num Pages: 136 pages, 20 black and white halftones. BIC Classification: PGM; WNX. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 173 x 113 x 8. Weight in Grams: 116.
