Благодарности

Появлению моего давнего любопытства к радикальным научным идеям и пути их развития я обязана людям, живущим на трех континентах. Мне посчастливилось участвовать во многих уникальных академических сообществах, которые сформировали мое мировоззрение как физика и как писателя. Моя собственная жизнь действующего ученого, генерирующего и испытывающего новые идеи, заставляет меня постоянно размышлять о прогрессе радикальных идей в современной астрономии.
