Return to E-mail Discussion page Hi all,I'm writing to share the news that a cosmology text I've been working on with Craig Tyler for several years was just released by Addison- Wesley :) Please help spread the word to others who might be interested, by forwarding the basic info I've pasted below, requesting the book at your local library, contributing reviews to Amazon.com or relevant journals, etc. I'd also love to hear your ideas and suggestions about teaching cosmology, and updates on what you're up to if we haven't talked in awhile! Thanks and warm regards, Todd ************************************ Your Cosmic Context: An Introduction to Modern Cosmology Todd Duncan & Craig Tyler Pearson Addison-Wesley, 2009 ISBN: 9780132400107 Introduces the core insights of scientific cosmology with an emphasis on connecting these insights to your own life and sense of place in the universe.
