exhaustive

The best book on the subject without a mathematical presentation!Despite the lack of formulae, this volume is really exhaustive. The theory is thoroughly presented.In fact diagrams,graphs and maps are simply abundant along the text,supplying a lively image of the physical processes.Many photographic plates are provided with detailed comments as well.Overall, a splendid and vast array of pictures that gives an engrossing description of scientific concepts. This book is a superb reference for professionals and laymen alike.
