ECLIPSE by
Bryan Brewer Foreword by Frank Herbert, author of Dune ISBN 0-932898-91-2, 2nd edition 1991, 104 pages, softcover, $14.95 More than 75 maps, diagrams, tables, and color photographs This is the exciting account -- from the Stone Age to the Space Age -- of humankind's perpetual fascination with the most fleeting and beautiful spectacle in all of Nature: the total eclipse of the Sun. The recurrence of this perfect alignment of the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth has inspired fear and reverence from different cultures all across this planet. Against the backdrop of our modern scientific understanding, the ancient symbolism of this truly awesome event survives as a reminder of our time and place in the universe. |
