Why read it?
1 author picked Cosmos as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book brilliantly revives the concept of cosmography, the visual depiction of the universe, from the beginnings of Romanticism to images from the Hubble telescope. By intermingling images from art and science, the book underscores the powerful visual parallels between the two disciplines, their discoveries equally strange, wondrous, and insightful.
From Brian's list on illustrated stories for grown-ups.
