Richly illustrated with full-color images, this book is a
comprehensive, up-to-date description of the planets, their moons,
and recent exoplanet discoveries. This second edition of a now
classic reference is brought up to date with fascinating new
discoveries from 12 recent Solar System missions. Examples include
water on the Moon, volcanism on Mercury's previously unseen half,
vast buried glaciers on Mars, geysers on Saturn's moon Enceladus,
lakes of hydrocarbons on Titan, encounter with asteroid Itokawa,
and sample return from comet Wild 2. The book is further enhanced
by hundreds of striking new images of the planets and moons.
Written at an introductory level appropriate for undergraduate and
high-school students, it provides fresh insights that appeal to
anyone with an interest in planetary science. A website hosted by
the author contains all the images in the book with an overview of
their importance. A link to this can be found at
