Nebula means “cloud” in Latin, but these little-known astronomical phenomena are different from Earth’s clouds. This book compares this astronomical feature with clouds using stunning illustrations, including a variety of photos, and informative text, especially the back matter. However, I was disturbed by the anthropomorphism with nebula taking on human characteristics. Overall, this is a good introduction to a difficult-to-understand concept. Add it to your astronomy section of the library.
