Stars in Their Eye

阅读材料，回答下列的问题：

The Scientific American Book of the Cosmos edited by David Levy, Macmillan, ￡20, ISBN0333782933。

Previous generations of scientists would have killed to know what we know. For the first timein history, we have a pretty good idea of the material content of the Universe, our position within it and how the whole thing came into being.

In these times of exploding knowledge there is a definite need to take stock and assemble what we know in a palatable (受欢迎的) form. ____________ (46)

The essays in The Scientific American Book of the Cosmos have been selected by David Levy,co-discoverer of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, which in 1994 struck Jupiter with the violence of sev-eral full-scale nuclear wars. ____________ (47) This is certainly a great collection of essays, but it isnot, as the book promises, a seamless ( 完美的，无缝隙的) synthesis of our current knowledge.

Nobody can fault the range of articles Levy has included. There are essays on the planets,moons and assorted debris (碎片 ) in the Solar System, and on our Galaxy, the Milky Way.____________ (48)

The contributors, too, are stars in their own fields. Not many books can boast chapters writ-ten by such giants as Erwin Schrodinger and Francis Crick. My personal favorites are a piercinglyclear essay by Albert Einstein on general relativity and an article by Alan Guth and Paul Stein-hardt on the inflationary, (膨胀的) Universe.

So much for the book's content. But Levy has not succeeded in providing an accurate synthe-sis of our current knowledge of the cosmos, which the book jacket promises. Gathering together previously published articles inevitably leaves subject gaps, missing explanations and so on.____________(49) But there isn't one. In fact, surprisingly for a book so densely packed with infor- mation, there is no index. Collecting essays in this way is clearly a good publishing wheeze (巧妙的主意). But this approach shortchanges the public, who would be better served by an account moulded into a seamless whole. ____________(50) However, for the next edition, please, please can we have anindex?
