Customer Review for this product :
Entertaining and Educational -
The "Manga Guide to ..." series provide a fun and easy to access guide to complex topics from physics and statistics to general topics such as the above product (Universe).
My daughter and I have used these thru out her education to bridge the gap between what is taught and what is retained. She enjoys the lighthearted aspect of manga and still comes away with the core concepts of the topic at hand.
They are all very well written, particularly considering the authors are experts in the fields they are writing about not in comic story lines.
All in all I highly recommend this series.
