Rating: - I've had worse textbooks
I liked this idea of this textbook a lot. It seemed like a unique and inspiring way to go over a subject that is not very interesting to me at all.

Rating: - Good study guide
Like most of the Science coloring books this is a great supplement to a full text and course. The material is presented in nice bite size pieces and it does cover a wide range of topics.
