Why Aren't Black Holes Black? Book

In Why Aren't Black Holes Black Robert Hazen poses a dozen of the most fundamental questions facing scientists today, then uses them as a springboard to review what is and isn't understood about these topics. As the title suggests, the first few questions deal with cosmology, but its scope ultimately proves far broader. The book covers everything from how atoms combine to the biological origins of memory to the possibilities for futuristic energy sources such as fusion. There's a particularly fascinating section on the composition of the earth's core, and throughout the book, Hazen manages to weave in not just scientific facts but also a sense of the history and personalities behind them.
