  Book Description
 
Written by William Sheehan, a noted historian of astronomy, and Christopher J. Conselice, a professional astronomer specializing in galaxies in the early
universe, this book tells the story of how astronomers have pieced together what is known about the vast and complicated
systems of stars and dust known as galaxies.
  
  The first galaxies appeared as violently disturbed exotic
objects when the Universe was only a few 100 million years old. From that tortured beginning, they have evolved though
processes of accretion, merging and star formation into the majestic spirals and massive ellipticals that dominate our
local part of the Universe. This of course includes the Milky Way, to which the Sun and Solar System belong; it is our
galactic home, and the only galaxy we will ever know from the inside. Sheehan and Conselice show how astronomers’
understanding has grown from the early catalogs of Charles Messier and William Herschel; developed through the
pioneering efforts of astronomers like E.E. Barnard, V.M. Slipher, Henrietta Leavitt, Edwin Hubble and W.W. Morgan; and
finally is reaching fruition in cutting-edge research with state-of-the-art instruments such as the Hubble Space
Telescope that can see back to nearly the beginning of the Universe. By combining archival research that reveals
fascinating details about the personalities, rivalries and insights of the astronomers who created extragalactic
astronomy with the latest data gleaned from a host of observations, the authors provide a view of galaxies – and
their place in our understanding of the Universe – as they have never been seen before.
  
 
About the Authors
  William Sheehan is
an astronomical historian and author of the biography of Milky Way photographer and pioneering astronomer E.E. Barnard,
The Immortal Fire Within (Cambridge University Press, 1995). He is a regular scholar-in-residence at leading
observatories, including Yerkes, Lick, Lowell and Mt. Wilson. As both a professional psychiatrist and an astronomer, he
has a unique insight into the personalities of the pioneering figures of the history of science. He has published a
number of books on the history of solar system studies, especially on the Moon and Mars. Sheehan is a consulting editor
of Sky & Telescope, a 2001 fellow of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation for his research on the Milky
Way, and a recipient of the Gold Medal of the Oriental Astronomical Association. Asteroid no.16037 is named in his
honor.
  Christopher Conselice, an astronomer at the University of
Nottingham, is one of the world's leading experts on galaxy formation and evolution. He was educated at the University
of Chicago and the University of Wisconsin-Madison and has held post-doctoral positions at the California Institute of
Technology and the Space Telescope Science Institute. He was a regular contributor to Mercury, the magazine of the
Astronomical Society of the Pacific. He has published his research in leading professional journals, including Science,
Nature and the Astrophysical Journal.
