Recensione

'Where the book really shines is in the illustrations, providing a photo album of the newly discovered comet, its evolution as it headed for its catastrophic end, the Galileo and Hubble Space Telescope observations, and the wealth of ground-based infrared and visual imagery ... highly recommended.' Paul Weismann, Science

'The great value of this book is that so much is written by the main players themselves ... One puts the book aside with a profound sense of excellence achieved ... a great book suitable for a wide range of readers, and great value too.' Astronomy and Space

' ... a great deal of riveting information ... a model of good popular science exposition.' Science Reporter, Journal of the Association of British Science Writers ' ... superbly illustrated ... full of information.' W. M. Napier, Endeavour

'... a worthy record of a very momentous event.' Journal of the British Astronomical Association ' ... well produced, with excellent illustrations, easy to read ... Overall a splendid book.' Popular Astronomy

Descrizione libreria

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
