Book Synopsis Astronomer By Chance by : Bernard Lovell
Book excerpt: For years, the world's most powerful instruments for probing the depths of space were the Jodrell Bank telescopes in England. This autobiography by the man responsible for the telescopes describes the development of the new science of radio astronomy out of the crucible of British radar research during World War II. It also looks at the promise and pitfalls of Big Science at the dawn of the Space Age. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
