The Ultimate Visual Dictionary of Science by DK Publishing

Visual Science This book has just enough information to really whet the appetite on all kinds of subjects. It has just enough good pictures to keep a visually addicted person like me engaged and it is brief enough to actually finish a topic. It makes me want to study all kinds of other disciplines. Then the sour sting of bile reminds me how I feel about school. I have this problem where I conflate the knowledge school promises with reality. Never quite kicked that habit from elementary school of tearing up my homework before I even start it, which might not help either.

This book ought to be great light geek reading. Then maybe I’ll pull a Good Will Hunting and go to my library for the free details.
