Rebecca Elson was an astronomer; her work took her to the boundary of the visible and measurable. \"Facts are only as interesting as the possibilities they open up to the imagination,\" she wrote. Her poems, like her researches, build imaginative inferences and speculations, setting out from observation, undeterred by knowing how little we can know.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1784106550\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.1784106550.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Elson, Rebecca|Berkeley, Anne|di Cintio, Angelo|O'Donoghue, Bernard\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Crisp copy with a sturdy binding and light shelf wear.
