Lessons from Windows on the Universe(Peebles 09)

P. J. E. Peebles

Abstract: I know better than to come between the experts here assembled and their
research programs, so I confine these remarks to lessons to be drawn on the
state of our subject from the histories of research in three Windows on the
Universe: cosmology, our extragalactic neighborhood, and life in other worlds.
