The Complete Idiot's Guide to Astronomy, 2nd Edition
Publisher: Alpha
Date: 2001
Pages: 454
Description:
Astronomy is an ancient science on the cutting edge. Great discoveries were made centuries ago. Great discoveries are being made today. And great leaps forward in astronomical knowledge have often followed leaps forward in technology: the invention of the telescope, the invention of the computer, the development of fast, cheap computers. So much is being learned every day that we've been asked to bring out a revised edition of this book, the first edition of which came out only two years ago. And even more recent discoveries will be on the table by the time you read this new edition.
Yet you don't have to be a government or university scientist with your eager fingers on millions of dollars' worth of equipment to make those discoveries. For if astronomy is both ancient and advanced, it is also universally accessible: up for grabs.
