They say you can't judge a book by its cover... but I happen to think that I've got a pretty nice one! The front cover features a painting by William Hartmann, the originator of the giant impact (or Big Splat) theory of the Moon's origin. The back cover shows the Moon (of course) and a quotation from the Introduction that sums up quite nicely what I think this book is about.
