Doris Ann (USA: MD) (2009/05/31): Incredible package of information in this rather small book. I love it! I know others will, too. It is called the Portable Visual Encyclopedia, and it is exactly that! Beautiful colored factual pictures as well as amazing facts about so many things, including: geography, astronomy, anatomy, communications, physics, architecture, environment, literature, art, history, chemistry, music, biology.... It is so practically organized, easy to use...."at a glance understanding unlike other references." "Glosseries of key words, biographies of historic figures, and timelines of every major event provides a background about every subject."It is a book that almost has to be held in ones hand and previewed to believe the awesome amount of interesting facts---and for those of us who are more visual learners---the pictures add a terrific extra dimension. I think anyone else who loves to learn will love this book as much as I do!
