Thursday, 28 February 2008Website: The Encyclopedia of LifeFrom the New York Times: "Imagine the Book of All Species: a single volume made up of one-page descriptions of every species known to science. On one page is the blue-footed booby. On another, the Douglas fir. Another, the oyster mushroom. If you owned the Book of All Species, you would need quite a bookshelf to hold it. Just to cover the 1.8 million known species, the book would have to be more than 300 feet long...." http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/26/science/26ency.html
