Art and science marry with breathtaking effect in Felice Frankel and George
Whitesides’s On The Surface of Things. The images in this coffee-table book are
unusual views of phenomena found in the natural world: a microscopic view of a
yeast colony or a drop of rust. The book will excite scientific minds and leave
artistic ones in awe. Published by Chronicle, $22.95, ISBN
0811813940.
