From School Library Journal
Grade 9 Up–Designed to support serious academic study, these three volumes (in a six-volume series) offer detail-rich discussions of their respective topics. Each one opens with the same introductory matter, closes with the same set of appendixes, and in between systematically covers basic facts, interior and exterior physical features, and exploratory missions both past and planned. Information is current enough to include, for instance, a mention of the August 12, 2005, launch of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, but not the November 9th departure of the Venus Express. Though replete with tables, technical details, and mathematical calculations, none of the presentations offers more than a perfunctory assortment of black-and-white photos, supplemented by one small color section per volume. The closing lists of recommended books and Web sites are likewise stingy, but do provide some avenues for keeping current. Consider for assignment use, where circulating materials are needed to back up such reference resources as Paul Weissman's The Encyclopedia of the Solar System (Academic, 1998) or Kenneth R. Lang's The Cambridge Guide to the Solar System (Cambridge Univ., 2003).–John Peters, New York Public Library
