Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
The spectacular NASA Atlas of the Solar System, which came out in 1997, was priced beyond the reach of many libraries. Here is a more affordable alternative, offering the same content in a smaller format. RBB

"An excellent collection of systematic maps, photographs, and overviews of planets and major satellites...It is unique in scope and its use of uniform formats and consistent scales...highly recommended." Library Journal

"Clear a tray in your atlas case for this magnificent tribute to four decades of space exploration...This authoritative, eye-popping resource will be invaluable to libraries." School Library Journal

"Planetary scientists Greeley and Batson have done an excellent job." NZ Science Monthly (Aug 98)
