The books, selected for the Series by a panel of Museum scientists, focus on man -- his origins, nature and environment -- and on the world around man, from sub-microscopic life to the universe at large. Many of the books are specially revised for this series; most of them include forewords written by Museum scientists, drawings, photographs, maps, diagrams, and indexes; prices range from 95¢ to $1.45.
