The Moon is a beautifully illustrated account of our lunar neighbour in all its guises: a guiding light in the night sky, the driver of oceanic tides and natural cycles, the subject of exhaustive scientific study, and an enduring influence in literature, art, and popular culture.

Exploring theories for the Moon’s origins around 4.5 billion years ago, the book charts its influence on the calendar systems and mythologies of early societies, and its role in the invention of the telescope and the science-fiction genre. It tells the incredible story of the Cold War space race and the first Moon landings.
Specially commissioned illustrations capture the Moon’s phases and motions in vivid detail, while stunning photography and artefacts bring the rich history of lunar observation and exploration to life.
Straddling science, culture, and history across the world, The Moon is a captivating and richly informative celebration.
