Edwin Hubble: Mariner of the Nebulae


Edwin Hubble's life emerges as the engrossing tale of a talented man in search of something worthy of his commitment, who fails to find it within himself or in the world around him, and is driven to the remotest edge of the universe before he discovers it. A fascinating view of how the scientific elite lived in the period between the world wars...This is one of the most impressive scientific biographies of recent years.
