Powers of Ten: A Flipbook

Praise for the Scientific American Library Paperback Powers of Ten 'Dazzling' Publishers Weekly 'A brilliant pictorial and textual embodiment of a wonderful idea' Stephen Jay Gould Based on the best-selling classic Powers of Ten , this magnificent journey begins one billion light years away, with every two pages representing a view ten times larger than the view two pages earlier. As readers flip through the pages, they will descend the dimensions of the the universe, through our solar system down to a park on earth, then into the human body, its cells, DNA and finally a single proton. A fun and compact visual odyssey, The Powers of Ten flipbook shows us not only the relative size of things in the known universe, but also our place in it.
