Mixing memoir and visionary science, a leading astrophysicist’s groundbreaking personal account of her life and ideas

Is the universe infinite or just really big? With this question, cosmologist Janna Levin announces the central theme of this book, which established her as one of the most direct, unorthodox, and creative voices in contemporary science. As Levin sets out to determine how big “really big” may be, she offers a rare intimate look at the daily life of an innovative physicist, complete with jet lag and the tensions between personal relationships and the extreme demands of scientific exploration. Nimbly explaining geometry, topology, chaos, and string theory, Levin shows how the pattern of hot and cold spots left over from the big bang may one day reveal the size of the cosmos. The result is a thrilling story of cosmology by one of its leading thinkers.

I am an astrophysicist and writer. My favorite topics for research include black holes, the big bang, extra dimensions, and dark energy. These days I'm a professor of physics and astronomy at Barnard College of Columbia University in Manhattan. I'm also director of sciences at Pioneer Works, a center for art and ideas in Red Hook, Brooklyn. My latest book, Black Hole Blues and Other Songs from Outer Space, tracks the arduous campaign to detect gravitational waves. I hope you like it.
