For those who are enjoying Brian Cox's second television series, "Wonders of the Universe" I highly recommend the book of the same name.

It's quite a large, informative book which explores each episode in a lot more detail with lots of colour pics.
Each episode is broken down into it's own chapter and is colour coded for quick reference.
Also, some full page pin up size pics to keep the girls happy (Brian blowing bubbles, Brian thinking.. you get the picture girls). ;)

You can get it from The Book Depository (http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/Wonders-Universe-Brian-Cox/9780007395828) in the U.K. for only $28.87 (free shipping!) at the moment- honestly if you see the size and content of this book, that's huge value and fully worth every penny in my opinion.
At Christmas time when the book was $35, I bought two books for Xmas pressies- and even at that price alone I thought it was good value.

Book review of it is here (http://everythingexpress.wordpress.com/2011/08/24/book-review-wonders-of-the-universe/).

If you're enjoying the series, you'll enjoy the book even more, now do yourselves a favor and buy this book (said in true Molly style lol)

Really? :scared2:
Okay, if you think so Mike, I will be happy to contribute- I will tackle it in the near future.
Come to think of it now, it does make sense, I keep repeating myself over and over again on some of the books I keep recommending. :lol:

While we're at it (regarding contributing)...
I was hoping that my work on this thread here (http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=89385), (refer to post #13 onwards) that something could be done with it- what do you think?
I won't be offended if you don't think it'll be suitable for either a sticky or in the blue left sided menu bar. It does after all need to look like it'll belong. There just doesn't seem to be much ready info to help beginners on their journey in those two areas that I just mentioned.

Great info there Suzy! If you can copy/paste it into a word doc, include any images etc you need/would like, and send it to me via the Contribute (http://www.iceinspace.com.au/write-for-iceinspace.html) section.

Same for the book review :)
