You are guaranteed many happy interludes of reflection and instruction with this visually hypnotic book."-Judith Bumpus, The Art Newspaper "Once you've seen a snowflake magnified 6500 times or an x-ray image of the sun, you will never look at the world in quite the same way.

A breathtaking journey."-Geographical Magazine
