"In 1789, Alessandro Malaspina set out on an expedition to measure variations in the force of gravity, thereby to determine the true figure of the world. One of his destinations was a location called Doubtful Sound. He reached this destination, but failed to complete his test – drawn there by ambition he was repelled by the weather. "...In seeking to fathom the attraction of gravity, this book explores narratives that pull in multiple directions, from cellular biology to the origins of the universe." Deidre Brollo |
