  The Ghost in the Telescope is an insider's account of the Herschel Space Observatory, which was launched to answer two of the biggest questions in astronomy: How were the stars and galaxies born? 
   
  Written in an engaging manner for a general audience, this book tells the stories of the telescope itself, the discoveries it made, and the engineers and astronomers who built and used it. 
   
  This book, based on the author's own experience and interviews with the key astronomers and engineers, tells the story of the mission, from its original concept on a piece of paper in Venice to the moment after the end of the mission when the engineers had to decide whether to crash the spacecraft into the Moon. This book describes all the major discoveries made with the telescope and also gives an account, accessible to anyone without previous scientific knowledge, of the latest research into the births of stars and galaxies. 
   
  This book may interest anyone who is curious about astronomy, space missions, and how astronomy is done in practice. It is designed for a general audience and does not require any previous scientific background.

  Marx for Cats - A Radical Bestiary

  Leigh Claire La Berge

  At the outset of Marx for Cats, Leigh Claire La Berge declares that "all history is the history of cat struggle." Revising the medieval bestiary form to meet Marxist critique, La Berge follows feline footprints through Western economic history to reveal an animality at the heart of Marxism. She draws on a twelve-hundred-year arc spanning capitalism's feudal prehistory, its colonialist and imperialist ages, the bourgeois revolutions that supported capitalism, and the communist revolutions that opposed it to outline how cats have long been understood as creatures of economic critique and liberatory possibility. By attending to the repeated archival appearance of lions, tigers, wildcats, and "sabo-tabbies," La Berge argues that felines are central to how Marxists have imagined the economy, and by asking what humans and animals owe each other in a moment of ecological crisis, La Berge joins current debates about the need for and possibility of eco-socialism. In this playful and radical bestiary, La Berge demonstrates that class struggle is ultimately an interspecies collaboration.
