Has anbody else seen or read this recently published book. It is by an astrophysicit and Star Wars fan named Jeanne Cavelos and I just got it for Christmas and have just started reading and I find it a very good book. It deals mostly with the films and a little bit with the EU in looking at the the various worlds of the Star Wars Universe including if the numbers of planets are possible or not. It also looks at the different spiecies of creatures in Star Wars I especailly like the section on the Hutts where she viewed him as a giant slug and used this characterization to come up with some further details about his species. She deals with other things in the book including the probablity of lightsabers, the Force, space travel, and robots. I would recommend this book to any Star Wars fan that wants to know more about the Star Wars Universe
