The Hidden Universe (Wiley-Praxis Series in Astronomy and Astrophysics)

An introduction for undergraduate and postgraduate astronomers, astrophysicists, cosmologists, physicists, space scientists, and amateur astronomers with a knowledge of elementary algebra and calculus. Tayler (astronomy, U. of Sussex, England) discusses the evidence that there may be much more matter in the universe than is immediately visible; the hidden matter is apparent only because of the gravitational influence it exerts on other bodies.
