Incredible cover design
Show PostAnd of course, I appreciate that the galaxy images are from JWST, so the diffraction spikes also have a hexagonal symmetry. 😊
Show PostAlso, I really like the hexagonal grid pattern. It echoes the symmetry of the "Eightfold Way" diagrams that were key to connecting the properties of hadrons and discovering quarks, in the early 1960s. There's a nice discussion of the diagrams here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eightfo...
Show PostThis cover was designed by the same person who did the UK cover of my first book, "The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking)" (which you can find here: www.penguin.co.uk/books/311522.... I like that they work as a set!
Show PostBehold: the UK/Commonwealth version of the cover of my upcoming book, "How to Build a Universe (Theoretically Speaking)"! You can pre-order this version from www.penguin.co.uk/books/458932... or from wherever you get books in the UK. Nerdy notes about the cover design to follow below.
