The section on accommodations is weak, but then so are the accommodations, and readers are not expected to go to Mars, but to look at it through telescopes or in photographs. Hartmann, a scientist and writer currently with the US Mars Global Surveyor Mission, explains what the known features of the planet can reveal about its long transition from an earth-like place to its present condition. Color illustrations abound. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) 2003, Workman Pub. Co. Inc., 468pp, $18.95. Ages: Adult professional Subjects:
