"This book offers an intimate guide to the Milky Way, taking readers on a grand tour of our home Galaxy's structure, genesis, and evolution. William Waller shows how the Milky Way congealed from blobs of gas and dark matter into a spinning starry abode brimming with diverese planetary systems--some of which may be hosting myriad life-forms and perhaps even other technologically communicative species. Waller vividly describes the Milky Way as it appears in the night sky, acquainting readers with its key components and telling the history of our changing galactice perceptions. He makes the case that our very existence is inextricably linked to the Galaxy that spawned us. Through this book, readers can become well-informed galactic insiders--ready to imagine humanity's next steps as fully engaged citizens of the Milky Way."-- Page 4 of cover
