More Glowing Reviews for Gravity's Engines

Caleb Scharf has been lauded by The Wall Street Journal and The Christian Science Monitor. See what other critics have said about Gravity's Engines:

"Using rich language and a brilliant command of metaphor, [Scharf] takes on some of the most intricate topics in theoretical and observational astronomical research. He weaves a wonderfully detailed tapestry of what modern astronomy is all about, from the complexities of cosmic microwave background studies to the X-ray mapping of galaxy clusters." —Nature

 

"Scharf is a writer you'll gladly follow to the end of the universe." —Zocalo Public Square
