Ok, say its time to curl up on the couch with your favorite book on the cosmos. You go over to the fridge grab a 40 oz, stop by the tomb of knowledge and browse your selections. This book is the bomb on all that is UNI. You pick this little baby up and jump on the couch with a your drink and get ready to go on a tour of everything observable. This book is just cool. I have checked it out of the library many times. And now I am making it my own. Charts, numbers, stuff. It's all in there.

The book is divided into three easy to follow parts,each with many color photographs and color drawings.This book is an exciting tour of; yesterday, today, and the possible tomorrow of our universe.

My son spotted this in the library. He read their copy, and then got one of his own. His copy was ruined when the house flooded and he got another. Well organized--just the right level of challenge. Great illustrations. Well organized. No particular level of scientific knowledge required. A good book
