.Universe

by: Robert Dinwiddie, Philip Eales, David Hughes, Ian Nicholson, Ian Ridpath, Giles Sparrow, Pam Spence, Carole Stott, Kevin Tildsley, Martin Rees

October 03, 2005

I bought this book 4 weeks ago after trying out quite a few books about universe. This is by far the best book about the unimaginable universe. The things that I liked about this book are:

The book is divided into 4 sections. First one is overview of the universe. Second section goes into details of the solar system. Third talks about rest of the universe. Last section has guides to watch sky in the night.

It starts off with a few pages about technical understanding of forces that build universe. Excellent information about atoms, bonds, Bohr's orbits, photos, gravity etc. These basic concepts of physics are tied in to how the universe functions. If you are not a technical person, don't get scared by this since ... Read More:

.India, 15th (Footprint - Travel Guides)

by: Annie Dare, David Stott

November 01, 2007
My wife and I checked almost every India travel guide book that is sold in the USA. We took three travel guides with us to India but the footpring was the only one to return.

Its descriptions aids the reader in visting a site. It guides you as a (semi) independent travel in exploring the sites and how to navigate through them. Other travel guides have similar descriptions of the sites, but they do not tell the travelar where to go. This works fine if you have a guide (but then why bother with a travel guide book), but is not helpful as an independent travelar.

It also had great pre-prep suggestions on who to contact for booking your independent trip.

.Discovering the Solar System

by: David Hughes, Carol Stott

August 04, 2006
I watched a TV show on Galileo a couple of nights ago. With his crude telescope he saw the four big moons of Jipiter and was sentenced to house arrest for the remainder of his life. What could you imagine he would thought about receiving a kit like this one that represents what we have learned since his time. Here is a desktop mobile that has all the planets (it even has pluto, but what can I say), planets then called the wanderers because they moved back and forth among the stars.

There's a book on exploring the solar system, including those from the past and missions planned through 2055. Again what would Galileo have thought about the very concept that we could send probes into space. Since the basic concepts of electronics hadn't been invented, ... Read More:
