Review
Marcus Chown New Scientist : Lemonick tells the epic story of MAP and the dedicated band of scientist and engineers who made it happen.
Jennifer Birriel Astronomy : Concise but complete. . . . [Lemonick] covers everything from Hubble's observations of the expanding universe to the theoretical predictions of the afterglow.
Peter Coles Physics World : Breezy and engaging. . . . The author clearly has a flair for writing about popular science.
Joshua Roth Sky & Telescope : Michael Lemonick has admirably documented a space mission that fulfilled its promise.
Terry Johnson Planetarian : I found this book to be simply wonderful. Lemonick uses broad strokes to paint the cosmologists' view of the universe.
