Turned to the Stars. The Past, Present, and Future of Astronomy

Since Galileo first pointed the telescope at the stars, astronomy has become a treasure trove of creative development and an endless source of discoveries. Emily Levesque describes the world of professional astronomers, celebrates ingenuity and curiosity, and never ceases to... marvel at the wonders of the Universe.
«I wrote this book to capture the stories of the people who work with telescopes. In recent decades, not much has been gathered in astronomy, but observational astronomers have accumulated a wealth of experience during this time. The stories of astronomers are remarkable, but this is also a monument to a fading era… The study of astronomy will continue, fueling the curiosity and self-awareness of humanity». (Emily Levesque)
