Review of "The Sun's Heartbeat: And Other Stories from the Life of the Star That Powers Our Planet" on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This book of solar science is highly accessible and the facts are very current. The author uses humor and references with equal panache. Each chapter deals with a topic, from sun spots to solar flares to vitamin D to astrology and more. History is covered as well as current research, and did I mention how readable it is? Highly recommended!
