"Wonders of the Planets" takes us on a fascinating journey through our solar system. It pulls together all the latest discoveries and theories to present a revealing comparison of the Earth, our neighbouring planets and all the moons captured in their thrall. Each of the six superbly illustrated chapters covers a major and dynamic aspect of the planets, from the fury of their atmospheres to the devastating volcanic activity beneath their surfaces. With additional material on other planetary systems far away from our own, this book offers a fresh 21st Century perspective on the Earth and its place in the solar system and beyond.
