Synopsis
'Life begins with the process of star formation. We are made of stardust. Every atom of every element in your body, except for hydrogen, has been manufactured inside stars, scattered across the Universe in great stellar explosions, and recyled to become part of you...'

It is only by understanding how stars work, what they are made of, and how they die, Gribbin explains, that we can ever understand our cosmic origins. The author 'takes us through the life history of the universe... (to) give a sense of the almost unbelievable coincidence of physical laws and circumstances that resulted in your being able to read these words today'
