Product Description

This text has two goals. The first is to show readers their place in the universe - not just their location, but their role as planet dwellers in an evolving universe. The second goal is to show readers how science works, and how scientists depend on evidence to test hypotheses and build confidence in theories. The book covers the history of astronomy, elementary physics concepts, stars and galaxies, the origins of the Universe, and the Solar System.
