Belkora tells the story of how we discovered we live in not only a galaxy, but a universe full of galaxies. The account is told through a series of biographies of seven astronomers who contributed to an understanding of the cosmos from the mid 1700s to the mid-20th century: Thomas Wright, William Herschel, Wilhelm Struve, William Huggins, Jacobus Kapteyn, Harlow Shapley, and Edwin Hubble. Belkora holds a PhD in astrophysics, specializing in solar radio astronomy, and is a science writer and astronomy teacher. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
