Mars As The Abode Of Life (1908) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781164344469)

""Mars As The Abode Of Life"" is a book written by Percival Lowell in 1908. The book is a scientific exploration of the possibility of life on the planet Mars. Lowell was a prominent astronomer and the founder of the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona. In the book, he presents evidence that Mars is not a barren planet but rather a world that may support life. Lowell discusses the planet's atmosphere, surface features, and climate, and proposes that there may be canals on the planet that were created by intelligent beings. He also examines the possibility of microbial life on Mars and argues that the planet's conditions are suitable for the development of complex organisms. The book is a fascinating look at the early days of planetary exploration and the search for extraterrestrial life. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of astronomy and the search for life beyond Earth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
