Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'This book will become ragged with use.A labour of love and listing. Amazing Numbers is better than googling, because it has a sensible index and you don't have to wade through a whole load of irrelevance to get what you want. It's also logically divided into such sections as 'Size', 'Blood' and 'Germination', and, just in case you ever want to check, all the facts are referenced. A warning though -- this addictive book will keep you absorbing odd little facts: dimensions of a bread mould's mitochondria anyone '-- BBC WildlifeWith hundreds of tables and over 10,000 entries anyone who works or studies in the life sciences or those with a curious mind will find exact answers to many questions requiring comparative data.
