Publisher's Synopsis

With clarity and keen intellect, Scharf masterfully explains how black holes blow bubbles. He also explains how these bubbles profoundly rearrange the cosmos around them. Engaging with our deepest questions about the universe, he takes us on an intimate journey through the endlessly colour place we call our galaxy.
