Venus Revealed: A New Look Below the Clouds of Our Mysterious Twin Planet Book
This comprehensive portrait of the Sun's second planet is a fascinating blend of ancient history and modern science. David Harry Grinspoon begins by showing why Venus has traditionally held a unique place in the human imagination (hint: it's not just because Venus is the brightest "star" in the sky). He also includes up-to-the-minute information from the Magellan spacecraft on what we know about Venus's super-hot atmosphere and pressure-cooked geography. Along the way, Grinspoon shares his geeky humor and makes deft pop culture references to R.E.M. songs, astrology and Zsa Zsa Gabor. The pictures--many of them in full- colour--are great, too. All the planets should have books like this one.Read More
