This book does operate as both a graphic novel and an educational tool... and is an interesting way to convey otherwise scientifically specific and technical information. It did, however, feel like an overly self-conscious effort to 'educate' the reader - a bit insistent. Perhaps more suited to a mode like the 'Introducing' books - that series of heavily illustrated guides to all kinds of philosophical and scientific areas and ideas published by Totem books. But perhaps I just prefer a good story in graphic novels...!
