Hi Iain, For such specifics as this (origin of Globs) you won't find this in that book. His general headings are: Where are we? Are we alone? Who are we? Why are we here? and What is our future? To my memory Burnham covers these specifics as he gets to them in his vast observations - but his work is dated (1960s). I have had another thought for you. I have been grabbing;
New Scientist(The Collection) which is a 130 page or so magazine that comes to good newsagents every couple of months and takes themes such as:Our Planet; The Unknown Universe etc with about ten well researched essays by the experts in each issue. They are up to date and very readable. You can buy back issues on the net of if you are near a good library....
Keep searching, but don't leave such profound reading for the pillow. Kind regards.
