The Ultimate Guide To The Constellations And Planets Bok
This is a highly practical guide to identifying the constellations and the stars that comprise them. Geoffrey Cornelius, astronomy expert and teacher, brings star-watching vividly to life by conveying the rich symbolic significance that the heavens assumed in many cultures, from the Babylonians to the ancient Greeks. Master star navigation by building your knowledge rather than relying on technology. "Signpost charts" make finding stars easy. Assuming no prior knowledge of astronomy, the book concentrates on features that can be made out with the naked eye or binoculars. All 88 Major and Minor Constellations, and the planets, included. Along with beautiful 4-colour illustrations of each, and the myths and legends behind hundreds of individual stars, lose yourself in the magic of the night sky. Plan your year around the unmissable celestial moments with the "full-sky maps" that show which constellations are viewable and where, every month. Whether you're a budding astronomer looking to deepen your understanding, or an astrologer hoping to learn more about the ancient myths that were formed in the sky, you'll find everything you need in this comprehensive introduction.

The Underworld Bok
<p><b>THE INSTANT <i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER<br/><br/>An awe-inspiring portrait of the mysterious world beneath the waves, and the men and women who seek to uncover its secrets.</b><br/>______________________________________________<br/><b>'Masterful and mesmerizing</b> . . . an irresistible mix of splendid scholarship, heart-stopping adventure writing, and vivid, visceral prose.' Sy Montgomery, author of <i>Soul of an Octopus </i><br/><b>'Fantastical and forbidding'</b> <i>Washington Post </i><br/><b>'A fascinating history'</b><i> Time</i><br/>'Casey's descriptions of <b>the shimmeringly strange life teeming below the waves capture her wonder and ravishment</b> in prose that morphs into poetry . . . Entralling' <i>Boston Globe</i><br/>For all of human history, the deep ocean has been a source of fear and fascination, an unknowable realm that evokes a singular, compelling question: what's down there? But now cutting-edge technologies are allowing scientists and explorers to discover this strange and exotic underworld: a place of soaring mountains, smouldering volcanoes and valleys 7,000 feet deeper than Everest is high. A realm long thought to be devoid of life is, in fact, a vibrant new world, home to pink gelatinous predators and shimmering creatures a hundred feet long, creatures that breathe iron and communicate through their skin, ancient animals with glass skeletons and sharks that live for half a millennium.<br/><br/>In <i>The Underworld</i>, Susan Casey traverses the globe, joining scientists and explorers on dives to the deepest places on the planet. She interviews the marine geologists, marine biologists, and oceanographers as they uncover this vast unseen realm. And she discovers the mind-blowing complexity and ecological importance of the abyssal ocean and the quadrillions of creatures who live in its depths.</p>
