"With the Messenger Mercury probe enroute Exploring Mercury, the latest book in the Springer Praxis Astronomy and Space Science series, is timely. It’s written by two planetary scientists and comprehensively reviews what is currently known about the tiny planet. A nice touch – a CD-ROM is included containing over seven hundred of the best Mariner images and mosaics. The book is technical but written so that an interested amateur can understand it without specialist knowledge." (GlenThomas, Astronomy Now, November 2004).
