Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

George H. Rieke is Regents Professor of Astronomy and Planetary Sciences at the University of Arizona. He switched from TeV gamma rays to the infrared just in time to enjoy its growth from primitive beginnings, to culminate with the launch of JWST. He has contributed to many scientific and technical topics along the way, gaining the background for this broad-ranging book. His other books include The Last of the Great Observatories (2006) and Measuring the Universe (Cambridge, 2017), which won the American Astronomical Society's Chambliss Astronomical Writing Award.
