Description: "You've all seen the poster of the milky way galaxy with an arrow to a point about halfway out from the center and the caption, 'You are here.' This book is like that only more so. It locates the human experience in the entirety of space-time."--Alfred Crosby, author of "Ecological Imperialism: The Biological Expansion of Europe, 900-1900"
Review Quotes: "[Christian's] book is remarkably successful. It has the essential effect of first stimulating and then retaining the reader's interest."-- "New Scientist"
