Review
'An Introduction to the Solar System stands out from the majority of introductory textbooks in this area due to its excellent coverage of the geological and geophysical aspects of planetary science. The glossary of terms provided in the back of the book will prove extremely helpful to students, as will the many questions and exercises interspersed throughout the text.' Professor Imke De Pater, University of California, Berkeley
'Of all the planetary-science textbooks on my shelf, this is my new favorite. It is up to date, lavishly illustrated, and engagingly written at a level that would challenge but not overwhelm the typical undergraduate ... excellent value.' Science Direct
'... it is clearly written and a joy to turn over each page ... This book covers such a wide range of information that there is bound to be something for anyone who has ever had an interest in what is beyond our planet ... It represents, to my mind, excellent value for money with so much knowledge available for each penny spent!.' Open University Geological Survey

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
