Description

Astronomy, botany, the climate . . . From the wonder of fireflies to the mysteries of the Big Bang, from magnificent maps of animal migrations to the anatomy of snowflakes, Phenomena's superbly rendered infographics and concise texts will help anyone with a curious mind and a thirst for knowledge grasp a broad range of scientific, historical, and cultural concepts.

This highly original encyclopedia covers 124 topics, illuminated by colorful and contemporary illustrations and bolstered by the latest scientific research. Phenomena jumps entertainingly from theme to theme, finding the same sense of wonder in a snail shell as in the formation of a star.

Its broad mix of subjects offers an insightful, visual approach to knowledge of the world around and within us. Like the borders of waves, clouds, and light, the borders of these phenomena shift over the course of the book's pages, taking readers on a journey across the Earth, into the sky, and beyond.
