"Another useful reference source from Gale's UXL imprint. Students in grades five and up and their teachers and librarians will love this set at research-the-scientist time. The set begs to be browsed. School and public libraries under siege for scientist information would do well to invest in this reasonably priced treasure trove. The layout makes for easy reading, and the cover design attracts the eye."
