Gareth Stevens is proud to present a completely updated and revised edition of our highly acclaimed Iassc Asimov's New Library of the Universe. A re-worked text throughout relects the latest discoveries and theories, and the most up-to-the-minute new photographs bring these volumes into the 21st century while mintaining the authority and accessibilty of the original. Asimov's original work forms the basis for a fascinating mixture of science fact and theory combined with his higly readable prose style. The result is a series capable of answering, in an understandable and truly informative way, the multitude of questions children ask when they gae skyward. The 12 revised volumes already in print will soon be joined by 18 more, covering all aspects of the universe and its exploration.
