From a star theoretical physicist, “a love letter to the wonderous universe we call home, and an urge to think critically about how we explore its depths” (Smithsonian Magazine)

In The Disordered Cosmos, Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein shares her love for physics, from the Standard Model of Particle Physics and what lies beyond it, to the physics of melanin in skin, to the latest theories of dark matter—all with a new spin informed by history, politics, and the wisdom of Star Trek.

One of the leading physicists of her generation, Prescod-Weinstein is also one of the first one hundred Black American women to earn a PhD from a department of physics. Her vision of the cosmos is vibrant, buoyantly nontraditional, and grounded in Black feminist traditions.

Featured Article: The best audiobooks about aliens for curious humans


Throughout the history of storytelling, we humans have been curious about the possibility of worlds beyond Earth and its inhabitants. Thanks to our endless fascination with extraterrestrial life, there is a mountain of literature, from novels to memoirs, exploring the potential outcomes of interacting with creatures from other planets. Without further ado, here are 20 of our favorite listens about alien life.

While some of the science was over my head, the meaning of the story itself was perfectly told.

Beautiful and Deep

It was an excellent read that delves into the intersectionality between being a woman, a minority and being a victim in a patriarchal society. I wish there were more books like this.

An amazing book

Continued my love and fascination with science I hear there is community for me as a black woman who could never find her way to be called a scientist but uses science everyday!

Love this book!!!

This is an expansive text in every sense. It will stick with me for a long time. The author refuses to disentangle modern notions of "objective" science from subjective humanity. Good. That false philosophical divide is crushing is. Her unflinching assessments and style plot a course for new worlds. Bravo!

Anyone looking to engage pure/tradtional/white scientific ideas will be deservedly frustrated and disappointed (and should take that feeling as a sign that you need a different and more dynamic lens). Nothing changes if no one changes.

Brilliant! A must read!

Wow... Can't say I enjoyed reading this book, though I'm more educated and aware of things that remained invisible to me for far too long.

Witnessing a part of the universe through your eyes combining social and cultural narratives, histories and experiences with the pull of scientific inquiry indeed changes everything. I find as a reader your story forcing me to wrestle with the unconstrained powers of "infinity" on a planet hell bent on constraint.

Thank-you Dr. Prescod-Weinstein.

Wrestling with "infinity" on a constraining planet

One of the best books about both astrophysics and theoretical physics meeting the urgent need of decolonization.

Science is social

Make no mistake about it: this is a difficult read. It will stretch the boundaries of your ability to understand particle physics and at the same time challenge your white fragility. Prescod-Weinstein pulls no punches in describing the ills of the colonialist, racist, and gender misogamy that drives our society, giving whites advantage at the expense of others (I am white). But it is a worthwhile stage of our journey toward awareness and a call to action. Highly recommend.

Life altering

This was a great book and we need more like it- racism needs to be talked about a lot more and this was amazing. Thanks for putting this into the world
