This is a tale of false leads, blind alleys and groping in the semi-dark, all of which lead to the discovery of the elusive evidence of the age of the universe. The author, as a research astronomer, was involved in the work with the Hubble Space Telescope which lead to the final breakthrough.

John Gribbin has a Ph.D. in astrophysics from Cambridge, and is now Visiting Fellow in Astronomy at the University of Sussex and consultant to New Scientist. His books have been translated into many languages, and have won awards in both Britain and the United States. He also writes science fiction.
