Hello, I am selling the following two books as a package deal:

1) Encyclopedia of the Solar System, Paul Weissman (Editor),1999, good condition, hardcover, 992 pages (heavy book).

A review: "The 56 contributors to this one-volume encyclopedia-all specialists in solar system science-describe the system from the galaxy inward to the sun and then outward through the planets....The audience the editors have aimed at includes teachers, students, advanced amateurs, astronomers who do not specialize in the solar system, and professionals in other scientific and technical fields. Such a person could read the volume straight through or plunge at once into any of the topics."
--John Rennie, Editor-in-Chief, SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, March 1999

2) The New Solar System, 4th Edition, J. Kelly Beatty (Editor), 1999, Sky Publishing, good condition, soft cover, front cover a few creases, 421 pages.

A review: "A well-illustrated tour of our solar system...The authors' discussions of what we don't know about these phenomena are bound to arouse the curiosity of the general reader, and their explanations of what we do know are supplemented with informative colorful photographs, diagrams, and suggestions for further reading." Science News

Both books $50 shipped.

Thanks,

Brien Stratton
