The legendary Isaac Asimov starts what is perhaps the finest of all his books with a simple query: How finely can a piece of matter be divided? But like many simple questions, this one leads readers on a far-flung quest for a final answer, a search that encompasses such fascinating phenomena as light and electricity and their components--strange but real bits of matter that challenge our assumptions about the very nature of time and space. 40 illustrations.

Seller's Description:
Fair. An acceptable and readable copy. All pages are intact, and the spine and cover are also intact. This item may have light highlighting, writing or underlining through out the book, curled corners, missing dust jacket and or stickers. This is a ex library book, stickers and markings accordingly.
Not many teachers can write a book which remains exciting from the start to finish by its clarity of expression. Asimov always keeps the reader able to understand any point he is making or explaining. I don't think there are many writers who do that so well. - He is the best science writer that there has been. This book is true to that.
