Of Stars and Men: The Human Response to an Expanding Universe

 

About the Illustrator


The inspired illustrations which enhance this edition are a graphic display of comets, stars, starlight, and star formations - in addition to a sensitive visual suggestion of what the author calls “the rules of the cosmic game.” The artist, Richard C. Bartlett, is represented in the collections of the Fogg Museum at Harvard; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; the Wiggins Collection, Boston Public Library; Library of Congress; National Museum in Israel; and the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris.
