| The only word which can aptly describe this site is "incredible" Indeed, it is incredible that books of such high quality be available, and for Free, on the Internet. You will require a special 'runtime' program to view these books (available on site). Most files are fairly large. To give it a try, i suggest you download and run any one of the featured books and if you like it, as I am sure you will, then you can get the rest (nearly 100 Megabytes of downloading, but worth the effort). These Electronic PictureBooks are authored by space scientists, engineers, and astronauts for the interest and education of students and the general public. If you have a child at home, or if you like science... you owe it to visit this site. Let me know what you think, OK? This special 'goodie' is also featured here | |
