By Mark Gober ’08

Published Sept. 23, 2024

The latest in Gober’s An End to the Upside Down series, this time he’s tackling the cosmos. Using commonly held beliefs — such as the Big Bang theory and ideas that people on Earth occupy no special place in the cosmos — Gober’s goal is to deconstruct what society thinks it knows about the universe. In An End to the Upside Down Cosmos (Waterside Productions) Gober isn’t afraid to admit he doesn’t know the definitive answers to these questions, while also emphasizing the importance of challenging these beliefs by highlighting flaws and inconsistencies. This book will make readers rethink their very existence.
