Journal of Discovery is an extraordinary look at the revolutionary ideas of history’s greatest inventors. Journal of Discovery is a unique collection of exquisite pop-ups and illustrations that celebrates these intellectual pioneers - Copernicus, Edison, Gutenberg, Watt, the Lumiere brothers, Marconi, and Bell - and their awe-inspiring works. Readers will learn about the Lumiere brothers, who made the first motion picture, and Guglielmo Marconi, who developed the first radio telegraph picture. They'll find out how James Watt perfected the steam engine and how Johannes Gutenberg developed his innovative method of printing. They'll learn how these ideas were received in the past, and how they continue to influence our present - and our future.'

We carefully inspect every single book we list and give accurate descriptions. If you require we will promptly send pictures of listed books upon request. Size: 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall.…

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

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
