Review
Super-stylish miscellany of facts and figures in a large-format hardback. Topics include the Periodic Table, tides, clouds and the Fibonacci sequence. ― The Bookseller
Every two pages offers something different, and readers can dip in and out as they see fit. The clean, clear lines of the illustrations provide a perfect balance to the short blocks of text. ― The Irish Times
