Explodapedia is an exploded encyclopedia - everything you need to know, one book at a time! It's a fresh approach to non-fiction, taking key scientific subjects and presenting them in a way that's hugely entertaining and readable, whilst still presenting reliable, serious, in-depth information that will help readers gain a true and lasting understanding of these crucial topics.
Evolution in an approachable, compelling way, celebrates the ground-breaking work of Charles Darwin and the myriad other thinkers who inspired his work, and those who have developed his discoveries into today's cutting-edge science.
