Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing Book
I got this book from sams club for $15 and this is the most amazing book on the universe that i have found. Talks about everything and has amazing pictures and information on everything even old astronomers. Just amazing.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Binding unglued

It starts off with a few pages about technical understanding ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Binding of the book broke
The information and illustrations inside the book are wonderful. Every page you turn to has something that sparks your interest. Only downfall was that I purchased this for my husband for Christmas and the second time he opened the book to read out of it the binding broke.
