Ultimate Visual Dictionary of Science Reviews

Six ****** stars! This 1997 now-classic still holds its own as an excellent REFERENCE text ... even in this post-paper-Wiki-Kindle world. Leave it to DK to re-invent the paper book format for the digital "Wiki" age. Note by "wiki" I mean its innate Polynesian connotation: quick, accessible, succinct. DK releases HQ True-PDF versions which preserve most of their orig., paper fidelity -- but I haven't seen Ultimate Visual Science or (more-generic) Ultimate Visual Dict. in that iPad-friendly format. Hope DK True-PDFs their older titles -- they are worth it!
