From Here to InfinityA Beginner’s Guide to Astronomyby John Gribbin & Mary Gribbin

Renowned science writers John and Mary Gribbin team up with oneof the most historic scientific sites in the world—the RoyalObservatory, Greenwich—to take readers on a stunning visual tourof the universe. This riveting journey moves from our home planetoutwards to the Moon, Sun, Inner and Outer Solar Systems, MilkyWay, and other galaxies. Not only do the Gribbins discuss thealways-intriguing topic of alien life, but they divulge little-knownfacts (Venus is the only planet in our solar system to rotate back-wards), as well as all the basics beginning armchair astronomersneed to know. Dramatic four-color photographs complement theinformative text, giving readers a sense of what it might be like to bean astronaut…and go where no one has gone before.

Sacred GeometryDeciphering the Codeby Stephen Skinner

A fascinating and inspirational look at the vital link betweenthe hidden geometrical order of the universe, geometry innature, and the geometry of the man-made world.

The Da Vinci Code has awakened the public to the powerful andvery ancient idea that religious truths and mathematical principlesare intimately intertwined. Sacred Geometry offers an accessibleway of understanding how that connection is revealed in natureand the arts. Over the centuries, temple builders have relied onmagic numbers to shape sacred spaces, astronomers have usedgeometry to calculate holy seasons, and philosophers haveobserved the harmony of the universe in the numerical propertiesof music. By showing how the discoveries of mathematics aremanifested over and over again in biology and physics, and howthey have inspired the greatest works of art, this illuminating studyreveals the universal principles that link us to the infinite.

“Skinner makes a remarkably elegant case.” —Booklist

TreeA New Vision of the American Forestby James Balog

In Tree, acclaimed photographer James Balog explores the chang-ing character of the American forest, seeking out superlativetrees—the old, the massive, the tall—in whatever landscape theyremain. We see immense portraits of sequoias and redwoods as nohuman has ever viewed them, captured in thousands of tiny framesas the photographer rappels down a neighboring tree. We also seethoughtful portrayals of trees that have survived by sheer hardi-ness or luck, poised on the edge of northern wilderness, isolatedon a golf course, or pardoned by the mark of a forward-thinkinglogger. With accompanying essays by the photographer, this awe-inspiring volume truly delivers a new vision of American trees.

“It is hard not to be moved by these images. Give yourselfsome time to enter into these pages, and plenty of space. Itis a unique vantage point.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer

“James Balog goes to dizzying heights to take stunning photos...”—People

“...a stunning tribute to majestic trees across America...paired mini-essays offer a wealth of tree trivia.”

Changing Planet, Changing HealthHow Climate Change Threatens Our Health and What We Must Do About Itby Paul Epstein, MD, Associate Director, the Center for Health and the GlobalEnvironment, Harvard Medical School, & Dan Ferber

As Rachel Carson did in Silent Spring, Dr. Paul Epstein here delivers a powerful wake-up call to readers and leaders,chronicling the alarming effects of global climate change on the health of our planet and its inhabitants. Blendinggroundbreaking scientific inquiry, sympathetic human stories, and a behind-the-scenes view of the politics of climate change during the Bush administration, Dr. Epstein, originally a general practitioner and tropical diseasespecialist, and award-winning science journalist Dan Ferber unveil an elegant and far-reaching synthesis of medicine, environmental science, and economic policy that sheds new light on the climate crisis and its startlingimpact on human health.

From Africa, where mosquito-borne diseases like malaria and dengue fever now appear at high altitudes, to theoutpatient unit of Harlem Hospital, where doctors treat children with asthma worsened by high pollen levelsboosted by rising carbon dioxide, Epstein and Ferber sound a clarion call that introduces readers to the cutting-edge of climate change science. Their book, the first to examine global warming’s damaging health effects, alsocontains an array of innovative measures to ameliorate their underlying causes.

• Driven by Al Gore and the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the issue of climate change willremain in the headlines for years to come; this is the first book on the health effects of global warming

• Dr. Epstein—who shared in the Nobel Peace Prize—is a sought-after lecturer with significant reach into the business community, including with such companies as Swiss Re and Citigroup
