An intelligent triple pack of paperbacks to round off the month: begin with
Before the Beginning by Astronomer Royal Martin Rees. As reviewer John Barrow
said of the hardback (Review, 11 January 1996): “It nicely reflects Rees’s
wide-ranging interests and his powerful intuition about astrophysical problems.
If you haven’t read a single cosmology book, this is a very good place to
begin.” Published by Simon & Schuster, £7.99, ISBN 0684816601.
