Reviews

Reviews about his previous book, Human Universe:

"Cox’s romantic, lyrical approach to astrophysics all adds up to an experience that feels less like homework and more like having a story told to you. A really good story, too." The Guardian

"He bridges the gap between our childish sense of wonder and a rather more professional grasp of the scale of things." The Independent
