5.0 out of 5 stars
Planetary Science Review,
By Eric J. Douglass (Mechanicsville, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encyclopedia of Planetary Sciences (Earth Science Series) (Paperback)
This book presents a good discussion of the major elements of planetary science. The sections on the planets themselves (such as 'Mars: Geology') are introductory, as they have limited space. However, as the articles move to more narrow subjects (such as 'Impact Cratering'), they increase in depth. The articles are written by experts in their fields, and the language is kept a non-technical as is possible for a general work. This is a useful reference for those interested in planetary science, from the high school level and up. It is the reference that I reach for when confronted with a subject that I know little about. It should take the interested individual to an intermediate level of understanding of most topics in this field.
