The problem with books dealing with subjects that "change" is that with current research, they may contain some old elements. And science is one of those subjects. Scientifica is certainly a beautiful book of over 500 pages, cheap, but the original publication date of 2008. And 7 years is a lot. The French version was made in 2012 for release of the book in 2013. That said, this book is very interesting to read and reread.
