'... a fitting tribute to an extraordinarily original mind.' New Scientist
'A mixture of history of science, measured reflection, and still a hint of controversy, this is a fascinating read.' The Observatory

Book Description
Fred Hoyle made an impressive contribution to many important problems in astronomy.
