Chip Kidd's cover for Brian Greene's "Icarus At The End Of Time"

Spotted at Chip Kidd's blog, where he writes about creating the cover. The book can be preordered at Amazon.

I've watched the miniseries based on Green's The Elegant Universe close to a dozen times. Even though the science is mostly gibberish to me, it's the best-edited tv show about science I've ever seen. The four-disc set is available at Amazon.
