Condizione: NEAR FINE. First printing. A book which "explores the various aspects of the solar system planet by planet. Along the way, it illustrates by example how science is 'done,' and constantly goes beyond the issue of merely 'What do we know,' to ask such questions as 'What motivates our questions?' and 'How do we go about finding the answers?' Each chapter begins with a purely descriptive section about a planet; then includes two sections on topics that are related to the planet in question (e.g., atmospheric chemistry and Venus; the generation of magnetic fields and Jupiter). Later chapters consider more difficult topics such as planetary satellites, comets and the solar wind, and the origin of the solar system." SIGNED on the title page by Brother Guy J. Consolmagno, SJ, an award-winning American research astronomer, physicist, religious brother, and director of the Vatican Observatory, one who believes in the need for science and religion to work alongside one another. Uncommon signed. Illustrated with black and white photographs, numerous charts and drawings. Several appendices, index. Small quarto. xii, 323 pp. Near fine in glossy illustrated boards (a few nicks to the bottom edge), no dust jacket.…
