| There is no better book on Astronomy. It's comprehensive, authoritative, and technical, yet completely accessible and fun to read for any novice. It covers every aspect of the Universe and Solar System with the latest information and theories, with thousands of interesting diagrams and pictures that explain things concisely. It also serves as a reference with it's many charts and listings. Every page is crammed with pertinent and fascinating reading; I didn't even realize it was a textbook for 2 days. This is the best 92 dollars I ever spent. (832 pages) |
