Chaucer was an amateur astronomer; Milton broke bread with Galileo; and before turning to the arts Keats was a doctor. Meanwhile,\u003cbr\u003escientific luminaries like Ada Lovelace and James Clerk Maxwell moonlighted as poets, composing verse between experiments and equations.\u003cbr\u003eFollowing in this tradition, theoretical physicist Joseph Conlon spins a dazzling intergalactic epic. Drawing on his own scientific expertise, Conlon reveals the origins of our universe, through two long-form poems     'The\u003cbr\u003eElements' and 'The Galaxies'. Journeying from the Big Bang to the edges of our ever-expanding cosmos, Origins offers a delightful and revelatory adventure through contemporary physics.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46643238699166,"sku":"UBD-9780861549115","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780861549115.jpg?v=1774485100","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780861549115","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
