Synopsis "Inside the Stars"
This broad interest text describes how our current understanding of the interiors of the stars came about, beginning in 1870. It starts by discussing the development of our knowledge of the inside of the Sun, and continues on to compare the Sun's and other stars' properties and then discusses how stars form, evolve, and die. The book describes the properties of a variety of stars with special characteristics, and it ends with a discussion of the first stars that formed after the Big Bang. Aiming to show how interesting scientific investigations can encourage young men and women to pursue STEM careers, this book also underscores the role women have played in the development of our understanding.Key FeaturesIncludes the stories of the historical advances that have led to our current understanding of the nature of the starsUnderscores the important roles women have played in the development of this understandingAvoids the use of technical jargon and clearly defines the terms usedIdentifies some of the key questions that remain unresolved at the time of writing
