This used copy is temporary for me till I get my original copy back from Alaskan storage. I originally bought it because in our homeschooling we were doing winter nature walks and reading children's books about Wilson Bentley (incidentally, I think the wrong one is still in print). We bought a Dover paperback of his photographs for the historic element and then to see modern quality (and also see how our technological ability has changed over the years) we bought this one. I didn't expect that when I bought it I would read it cover to cover, but I did... snowflakes have been around me my entire life and certainly I looked at them under magnifying glasses and marveled at their diversity but never gave them a thought beyond that. Needless to say, I don't look at snow the same way anymore. :) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another reason to love snow *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2007* Well written, with unparalleled photos of snow crystals. The book contains accurate physics, nice insights into snow crystal morphology and growth and is at a level that will engage almost everyone. Enough information here for a physicist to enjoy the book, but presented in a way that will not intimidate the layman. Just gazing at the pictures of the snowflakes will inspire wonder at the beauty of these little ephemeral creations, and is an antidote for frazzled nerves any time of the day, in any season. I've bought several to give away and one for myself, and it probably won't be the last one.The reviewer below who thought the author doesn't give enough credit to God for the amazing design of the snowflake, may be a little too demanding. Perhaps the author thought the little crystals speak for themselves, and lets the reader draw his own conclusions. I can't look at these beautiful pictures without marveling at a God who is so creative He doesn't "know when to quit"! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Photography and Science of Snowflake Creation *by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2006* Caltech physics professor Kenneth Libbrecht and photographer Patricia Rasmussen have put together a beautiful dissertation on the awesome formation and science behind snowflake formation--as much as is currently known, that is--there is still much to be deciphered in one of Nature's most beautiful and mysterious creations, but the basics are all here and depicted in beautiful detail along with easy to understand science. No two snow crystals are alike, but there are a multitude of basic design categories indexed.This book is book in a coffee-table format and the many photos are top quality and breathtaking.Libbrecht has also published a small photo catalog of over 140 beautiful snow crystals ("The Little Book of Snowflakes") in stunning detail and this makes a great companion book. Libbrecht's website has much more snowflake info (snowcrystals.com). --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/82592786-the-snowflake](https://www.desertcart.at/products/82592786-the-snowflake) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
