Book
Paperback. Condition: Good. Why do stars twinkle? Why can't we remember names? Why does the Leaning Tower of Pisa lean? Why does hair go grey? Why don't penguins get frozen feet? Why do detergents make white clothes whiter? Why are so many games called football? Brilliantly illustrated, here are hundreds of questions and authoritative answers about space and Earth, how our bodies work, why we observe age-old customs and traditions. There are also revealing insights into Nature's mysteries and the modern marvels of our homes and workplaces. The questions, seemingly simple, open doors to a wealth of interesting information and anecdotes on just about everything under the Sun and beyond; questions you might well have asked and to which nobody could offer you an answer. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The world abounds in places that are wreathed in wonder and shrouded in mystery. Some were sculpted by the awesome forces of nature, while others are dramatic expressions of the human spirit. This extensively-illustrated book examines more than 300 such places around the world, including Stonehenge, the Badlands of South Dakota, Shangri-La, Easter Island, the Grand Canyon, Tibet's Potala Palace, and Mount Kilimanjaro, and discusses topics such as how they were created, who discovered them, why they evoke such feelings of awe and wonder, and - in some cases - whether they do in fact exist. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
