A crucial element of science and engineering communication is visual. In Envisioning Science, science photographer Felice Frankel provides a guide to creating dynamic and compelling photographs ... ... from the large to small ... capturing new material and biological structures at the microscopic level. Full-color illustrations, many side-by-side comparisons, an extensive gallery of fine science photography. Benoit Mandelbrot: "In the beginning were the image and the eye. Then man-the-scientist became enamored of the word and neglectful of the image. Now the small group of those who fight back welcomes Felice Frankel as a marvelous addition, both as skillful performer and as experienced and patient teacher. Her book is priceless." Eric Lander, Director at the Whitehead Institute: "Felice Frankel's work conveys the tremendous beauty and excitement of science."
