Acerca de esta escucha

 Bloomsbury presents Starwatchers by Joanne Baker, read by Lucy Price-Lewis.

'An exhilarating exploration of how we've been touched by the cosmos across human history' LEWIS DARTNELL
'A contemplative journey ... illuminating how astronomy connects us to the stars, and also to each other' REBECCA BOYLE

What draws us to the night sky and how can we make sense of all that lies there?

In this unique synthesis of science and culture, former astrophysicist and writer Joanne Baker charts the global history of humanity’s relationship with the cosmos. Starting with the nearby Moon before venturing through the solar system to the stars and beyond, she unveils a rich mosaic of stories and research that illuminate the significance of celestial bodies in our everyday lives.

It is a history that transcends borders and cultural traditions, taking us from Mesopotamian moon worship to the science fiction of H. G. Wells and the discovery of black holes. Driven by a personal quest to understand the universe as more than just an abstract mathematical realm, Baker also includes her own sparkling first-hand experiences – from watching a total solar eclipse in Idaho to visiting an ancient observatory in Samarkand.

Starwatchers invites readers on an extraordinary journey through space that interrogates the boundaries of our earthly existence and encourages us to reflect on how we project meaning onto the skies.©2025 Joanne Baker (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Astronomía y Ciencia Espacial Ciencia Cosmología Para reflexionar
