One Woman's War

Eileen Younghusband

The Second World War is dominated by heroic tales of men defending their country against a formidable enemy, but what about the women who also played their part in fighting for freedom? Eileen Younghusband was just 18 when she joined the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF). She quickly demonstrated her keen intellect and mathematical skills, playing a crucial role in Fighter Command's underground Filter Room. Working gruelling shifts under enormous pressure, she and her companions worked tirelessly, tracking the swarms of enemy aircraft that sought to break the British resolve. She even had the dubious honour of detecting the first of Hitler's devastating V2 rockets as it fell on an unsuspecting London.

New Stars for Old takes readers on a journey through the history of astronomy from the perspective of pivotal figures as they make their discoveries.  

Referencing the changing relationships between science, astrology, religion and culture of each period, Marc Read's writing provides readers with the opportunity to discover more about key figures such as Aristotle and Newton through fictional tales as they make their non-fictional scientific discoveries. 

*****REVIEWS*****
"In this delightful and erudite mixture of fiction and fact, Marc Read imagines being a fly on the wall of the history of astronomy with fascinating results." (Matt Ridley, author of The Rational Optimist)
 
"A fresh and imaginative introduction to some important early thinkers." (Ursula Coope, Professor of Ancient Philosophy, Oxford University)

"Delightfully written, with an imaginative, informative, light-touch style, New Stars for Old really brings the history of astronomy alive." (Dr John Taylor, Head of Philosophy, Rugby School)

"In an enjoyable series of fictional letters and bright vignettes, Read reminds us that Aristotle, Ptolemy and Kepler were real before they became legends, young before they became old, and sociable human beings before they were turned into detached ideas." (Rebekah Higgitt, Curator at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich)
