You like art, don’t you? And you like space too? Then you’ll like this book by Anne Rooney.
Yes, it’s Anne again. She can do books on so many subjects, and subjects in so many ways. This is astronomy again, looking at countless old images – art – showing us space.
You could easily just look at these pictures, treating them like so much art. You probably already have, in many cases.
In Mapping the Universe Anne tells us a bit about the old men of science. You know, old Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler. Yes, I’m afraid it is mainly men.
This fairly large book is full of old space art. It’s the kind of thing you can look at again and again. Cosmos for the coffee table.
