Reviews
Through Gates's ambitious book, everyone will appreciate the puzzles of the dark Universe--and the power and beauty of gravitational lensing., Gates offers clear, accessible explanations of how gravitational lensing can be used to solve the biggest mysteries of the universe--first by using luminous matter to ferret out the dark matter, then by using the cosmic web of dark matter itself as a lens to probe dark energy and the very structure of time and space., What stands out in Evalyn Gates' cogent review of this intriguing topic is the sheer cleverness astronomers have demonstrated in fashioning tools to study the unseeable...As Gates so aptly demonstrates, describing how a science works toward a solution provides...enjoyment for any reader., If you wonder what the world is and how it works and how it works on the grandest scale, here's your guidebook!, An enthusiastic update on the search for the materials that make up the universe...Splendidly satisfying reading., Gates uses one of Einstein's great ideas to weave together mathematics, astrophysics, and cosmology into a coherent and, dare I say it, compelling narrative that maps out the frontiers of contemporary research., Gates . . . brings dark matter, dark energy, and even black holes to light . . . with deft humor and grace.

Synopsis
In 1936, Albert Einstein predicted that gravitational distortions would allow space itself to act as a telescope far more powerful than humans could ever build. Now, cosmologists at the forefront of their field are using this radical technique ("Einstein's Telescope") to detect the invisible. In fresh, engaging prose, astrophysicist Evalyn Gates explains how this tool is enabling scientists to uncover planets as big as the Earth, discover black holes as they whirl through space, and trace the evolution of cosmic architecture over billions of years. Powerful and accessible, Einstein's Telescope takes us to the brink of a revolution in our understanding of the deepest mysteries of the Universe., Evalyn Gates, a talented astrophysicist, transports readers to the edge of contemporary science to explore the revolutionary tool--"Einstein's telescope"--that is unlocking the secrets of the Universe. Einstein's telescope, or gravitational lensing, is so-called for the way gravity causes space to distort and allow massive objects to act like "lenses," amplifying and distorting the images of objects behind them. By allowing for the detection of mass where no light is found, scientists can map out the distribution of dark matter and come a step closer to teasing out the effects of dark energy on the Universe--which may forever upend long-held notions about where the Universe came from and where it is going., "In Einstein's Telescope, Evalyn Gates, an expert on all that's dark in the universe, brings dark matter, dark energy, and even black holes to light." --Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist, American Museum of Natural History, and New York Times best-selling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry

- o***1 (1096)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaHave bought from this seller many times before & it always been a good experience-this time was no exception! Book was bought “buy it now” at an excellent price for a hardcover…shipping was pretty good & book was shipped in a bag type mailer that was reinforced by wrapping around the book twice …I was impressed by the condition of the book too! It was listed in the description as good but I felt the book could have been listed as “like new” (yes that good!) highly recommend this seller!
- 4***e (51)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaBook well packaged and despatched promptly although it took 2 weeks to arrive. At the same time a book ordered on the same day from a different US seller arrived a week earlier and postage was a lot cheaper. Book in good condition as described.
- e***r (527)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThis was an order for two books, shipped together. Very few sellers can match the care, consideration and diligence that this seller has shown me. The packaging was phenomenal and shipping appears to have been done on the same day as the order. Pricing was very fair. Five stars are not enough but it's all I can do for now. My sincerest thanks!!!
