By Abraham Loeb and Steven R. Furlanetto Avi Loeb Director, Institute of Theory and Computation Chair, Astronomy Department, Harvard University Avi Loeb introduces his third book in this lecture. Published by Princeton University Press, they write: "This book provides a comprehensive, self-contained introduction to one of the most exciting frontiers in astrophysics today: the quest to understand how the oldest and most distant galaxies in our universe first formed. Until now, most research on this question has been theoretical, but the next few years will bring about a new generation of large telescopes that promise to supply a flood of data about the infant universe during its first billion years after the big bang. This book bridges the gap between theory and observation. It is an invaluable reference for students and researchers on early galaxies."
