This book is all about the terrestrial planets, which are planets that are primarily composed of silicate rocks and/or metals. Within the solar system, the terrestrial planets are the inner planets closest to the Sun. Chapters include the overview of terrestrial planets, telescopes used to detect extrasolar terrestrial planets, planetary habitability, and everything in between.
