| Title | How It ends: From you to the universe |
| Author(s) | Chris Impey |
| Publication | New York, W. W. Norton & Company, 2011. |
| Description | 352p. |
| Abstract Note | The fascinating science behind the eventual end to everything-from the individual to all existence.
Although we may try to keep it tucked at the back of our minds, most of us are aware of our own mortality. But few among us know what science, with the help of insights yielded from groundbreaking new research, has to say about death on a larger scale. Enter astronomer Chris Impey, who chronicles the death of the whole shebang: individual, species, biosphere, earth, sun, Milky Way, and, finally, the entire universe.
With a healthy dose of humor, How It Ends illuminates everything from the technologies of human life extension and the evolutionary arms race between microbes and men to the inescapable dimming of the sun and the ultimate "big rip," giving us a rare glimpse into a universe without us |

| Title | Origins and evolution of life: An astrobiological perspective |
| Author(s) | Muriel Gargaud (ed.);Purificacion Lopez-Garcia (ed.);Herve Martin (ed.) |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2011. |
| Description | xix, 526p.; |
| Abstract Note | Devoted to exploring questions about the origin and evolution of life in our Universe, this highly interdisciplinary book brings together a broad array of scientists. Thirty chapters assembled in eight major sections convey the knowledge accumulated and the richness of the debates generated by this challenging theme. The text explores the latest research on the conditions and processes that led to the emergence of life on Earth and, by extension, perhaps on other planetary bodies. Diverse sources of knowledge are integrated, from astronomical and geophysical data, to the role of water, the origin of minimal life properties and the oldest traces of biological activity on our planet. This text will not only appeal to graduate students but to the large body of scientists interested in the challenges presented by the origin of life, its evolution, and its possible existence beyond Earth. |
