Description: The Science behind the biggest movie in history explored by one of the world's leading science fiction writers and in collaboration with James Cameron.
Synopsis: James Cameron's Avatar is the biggest movie of all time. Such has been its effect on audiences that some have reported begin depressed at having to leave the vividly realised setting of Pandora to return to the real world. In THE SCIENCE OF AVATAR, bestselling science-fiction author Stephen Baxter and James Cameron explore the epic together. From journeys into deep space to anti-gravity unobtanium, from Pandora's extraordinary flora and fauna to transferring consciousness, Baxter and Cameron reveal that we are closer to world of Avatar than we know. Stephen Baxter is the master of what-if?' science fiction. In THE SCIENCE OF AVATAR he's written a book that will appeal to fans of both science-fiction and popular science. And a book that provides a glimmer of hope to those poor film-fans bemoaning their return to the earth after time spent on Pandora. Over twelve years, James Cameron created the richly imagined world that had its roots in real scientific discovery. THE SCIENCE OF AVATAR will offer fans the unique opportunity to explore the spectacular world of Pandora, from the creator himself.
