The secret life of dust : from the cosmos to the kitchen counter, the big consequences of little things

Author:	Hannah Holmes
Publisher:	Princeton, N.J. : Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic, 2003.
Edition/Format:	Audiobook on CD : CD audio : English
Summary:	Some see dust as dull stuff, useless at best, and sneeze-inducing at worst. But [in this book, the author] says dust is a messenger, and air is its medium ... The story of restless dust begins among exploding stars, then treks through the dinosaur beds of the Gobi Desert, digs into Antarctic glaciers - and probes the dark underbelly of the living-room couch. [This book introduces the reader to] the scientists who study dust. Some investigate its dark side: how it killed off dinosaurs and how its industrial descendents are killing us today. Others sample the shower of Saharan dust that nourishes Caribbean jungles; and still others venture into the microscopic jungle of the bedroom carpet.-Dust jacket.  Read more...
