Science: the definitive guide

Cover of Science: The Definitive Guide

David Read reviews this beautiful text

The press release accompanying this book claims that it gives a 'complete overview of all the major branches of science', and its imposing physical size gives some credence to the claim. On opening the book, the reader is immersed in a huge number of beautiful photographs and illustrations that can be found throughout its pages. This makes the book instantly appealing, and the pages are well organised with text and imagery in logical positions thus avoiding any sense of clutter.

A photograph of a teacher standing in a white lab coat, speaking with a class of children in a laboratory, is superimposed on a colourful background. Text reads "Teach Chemistry means support for classroom and staff room".
