This CD Edition is one of five excerpt editions derived from the deluxe Memories of Science book. This edition has the full text of the original edition in a boustrophedon booklet which can be removed from its case and unfolded to reveal, on the reverse, Susan Hunt Yule’s illustrated star maps from the Astronomy pop-up. It also has one of the five letterpress pop-ups from the original edition. Its centerpiece is the audio CD of the text of the book set to music by Doug Yule (formerly of the Velvet Underground and now a maker and player of violins) and performed by Big Red Dog.

The CD and the book are enclosed in a handmade magnetically-closing box. Box: 5.5 inches square by 0.8125 inches deep
