"In this elegant and captivating book Govert Schilling takes us by the hand through a century of scientific adventures to one a of the biggest discoveries of history." Robbert Dijkgraaf, Director and Leon Levy Professor, Institute for Advanced Study. "I read with great pleasure this friendly book. The placement of the detection of gravitational waves in the greater history of astronomy and physics is nicely done, and readers not yet familiar with many of the concepts will come away from the book having really learned some of the physics as well as having a sense of what real science and real scientists are like. The scope and organization makes it entertaining and leaves room for surprises." David Shoemaker, Spokesperson, LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Senior Research Scientist, MIT Kavli Institute.
