The case for Pluto : how a little planet made a big difference
Boyle, Alan, 1954-2010
Books
Pluto is endearing. People identify with it, and had strong emotional reactions when, in 2006, it was demoted from planet status. This book tells the story of its discovery, how it became a cultural object, and why, in fact, it should still be considered a planet.
