Praise for Timeline Science & Technology "Gigantic, propulsive, lavishly drawn and smartly annotated global timeline of science and technology...Filled with hidden details and subtle wit"-- The New York Times "5 STARS. Brilliantly portrayed in striking colors and spaced out in a graphic fashion that forces the eye to roam over the page and target in on specific figures and facts that pique the imagination...Belgian illustrator, Peter Goes, has produced an amazing pictorial assemblage of historical happenings from civilization's beginning up to the present time...The stunning colorful format with the intriguing figures illustrating illuminating events in the history of our world is a book that will capture the interest of young readers and enrapture mature viewers as they reminisce through these historical images.."-- San Francisco Book Review
