Summary, etc. | "“What a splendid book! Reading it is a joy, and for me, at least, continuing reading it became compulsive. . . . Chandrasekhar is a distinguished astrophysicist and every one of the lectures bears the hallmark of all his work: precision, thoroughness, lucidity.”—Sir Hermann Bondi, Nature<br/><br/>The late S. Chandrasekhar was best known for his discovery of the upper<br/>limit to the mass of a white dwarf star, for which he received the Nobel<br/>Prize in Physics in 1983. He was the author of many books, including<br/>The Mathematical Theory of Black Holes and, most recently,<br/>Newton’s Principia for the Common Reader" |
