It\u2019s not even that long ago. I had one in my children\u2019s bedroom. I read in it before going to sleep, and the fun was to discover subjects you never heard about.

But no, the author is a 21st Century homo universalis. He conceived, wrote and designed it himself. He is also a professional photographer. I would like to meet this Schott.
