Ripples on the cosmic ocean : a history of our place in the solar system

Books
Our solar system is a dynamic arena where asteroids veer off course and solar winds hurl charged particles across billions of miles of space. Yet, we seldom consider how these colossal events impact our fragile, blue planet. In this book, Dagomar Degroot traces the surprising threads linking human endeavour to the rest of the solar system. He reveals how the variability in planetary environments has shaped geopolitics, spurred scientific and cultural innovation, and inspired new ideas about the emergence and ultimate fate of life.
