This is the kind of big, brainy history that makes the evolution of cosmology feel deeply human rather than dry or technical. Koestler brings scientists to life as flawed, brilliant people shaped by belief, politics, and prejudice, which gives the scientific revolution real drama. If you like books that connect ideas across history, philosophy, and science, this feels rich, provocative, and surprisingly alive.
