Although this book is written to inspire youngish readers with curiosity about words, it is interesting to those of us who have encountered the words for years without digging into their roots. To a scholar of Latin or Greek, it would be child's play. Only occasionally does the author become coy or cute. Written in the early 1960s, it is interesting to read as a bit of a time capsule. Man had not yet landed on the moon, and so the chapter discussing Lunarians has a bit of wonder to it still. ( )
