Book Review: The Copernicus Complex

  It is human nature to question why we exist, and if there is some other form of life in another universe. Science over the last 500 years has been pondering the possibilities of life, both on the micro scale and on other planets. Although some things have turned from science fiction into science fact, we still have hundreds, even thousands, of "what ifs" left unanswered. The Copernicus Complex delves into these inquiries with a discussion of past discoveries in the fields of biology and astronomy, and looks into the future with hypotheses and hopes for discoveries to come. West Lafayette Public Library Director Nick Schenkel has a review.
