5.0 out of 5 stars An incredible journey into the future!, June 14, 2010
This review is from: Voyage to the Heart of Matter: The ATLAS Experiment at CERN (Hardcover)
This book is fantastic! This is one of those rare books that people of all ages will have a great time learning from, and with the amount of knowledge contained in the book there's a lot here to learn from. The pop-ups are very colorful and clever, I think this is one of the most effective and fun ways that this subject matter could have been dealt with in book form. Bravo!

5.0 out of 5 stars A unique, amazing Pop-Up book for everyone, June 14, 2010
This review is from: Voyage to the Heart of Matter: The ATLAS Experiment at CERN (Hardcover)
I agree with the magazine that says: "in this book the concepts literally leap off the page. The pop-up story about the world's largest atom smasher, the Large Hadron Collider, provides a 3-D tour of the 27-kilometer underground racetrack for colliding protons that straddles the countryside between France and Switzerland." I especially like how the Big Bang leaps off the page.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great idea, poor design, December 20, 2009
By 
This review is from: Voyage to the Heart of Matter: The ATLAS Experiment at CERN (Hardcover)
I was expecting a wondrous book with a subject matter as refreshing and interesting as this. But the pop ups, 4 pages worth, were amateurish and uninspired. The first page is quite a let down with just a flat map of the layout of the collider and a pull tab that didn't work. The second page had a pop up of a rig but it was not really a pop up at all as it required much tugging to stand. The third page was suppose to be the ATLAS itself but it is in pieces and needs assembly, I kid you not. And you call it a pop up book? The only saving grace is the fourth page with a nice pop up of particles colliding.

This could really have been a great book but the lack of material and proper pop ups let it down completely.
