  • Moons of the Solar System

    From Giant Ganymede to Dainty Dactyl

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book captures the complex world of planetary moons, which are more diverse than Earth's sole satellite might lead you to believe. New missions continue to find more of these planetary satellites, making an up to date guide more necessary than ever. Why do Mercury and Venus have no moons at all? Earth's Moon, of course, is covered in the book with highly detailed maps. Then we move outward to ... Leer más

  • Plant Geography of Chile

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The first and so far only Plant Geography of Chile was written about 100 years ago, since when many things have changed: plants have been renamed and reclassified; taxonomy and systematics have experienced deep changes as have biology, geography, and biogeography. The time is therefore ripe for a new look at Chile’s plants and their distribution.Focusing on three key issues – botany/systematics, ... Leer más
