This is not just "a moonbook"

It is much more... first of all it's a guide for those who want to search or want to know lots of names of selenologists and geologists, while simultaneously browsing through the pages of Wikipedia! - DannyCaes Dec 17, 2016
  This book is the Double Helix of the Moon (Charles A. Wood).
