Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. Space and time: Its mysterious beginnings and countless ages without life, mighty changes that made mole hills into mountains, nature's experiments with the first creatures and giant reptiles, man's evolution, epic discoveries, inventions and explorations, through today's challenge of the unknown in outer space. This is a volume in the International Pictorial Treasury of Knowledge. It is a reference book, much like a extensively-illustrated encyclopedia that covers the basic concepts of earth sciences & astronomy as understood in the early 1960s. The difference of this presentation from an encyclopedia is this presentation is to be read as a chapter through each topic, although each two page subsection addresses a single aspect of a topic. This design is more like a textbook or supplemental study program than an encyclopedia. The book seems to be written at about an 8th grade reading level, though it was probably intended for adults as well as school children. The seven topic categories are: The World's Beginning, The Coming of Man, Flora and Fauna, Man Surveys His World, Developing the Earth's Resources, The Earth and the Elements, and World's Beyond Our Own. The volume concludes with a brief alphabetical index. Profusely illustrated, every other page filled with wonderful full color illustrations. Each subsection is one page narrative facing one page of illustrations. Ritchie Calder, a.k.a. Peter Ritchie Calder, Baron Ritchie-Calder, CBE (1906 - 1982) was a Scottish socialist writer, journalist and academic. Calder first worked as a journalist in Dundee and Glasgow, where he became noted as a socialist and peace activist. While science editor of the News Chronicle, he wrote under the name of 'Ritchie Calder'. The introduction to this book is attributed to him. The title page implies this book is part of "The International Pictorial Treasury of Knowledge" and published by "International Graphic Society." We've only found one other title with this claim.
