Description: The book is well organized and conveniently divided into four sections. A feature of the text which I found particularly appealing was the almost conversational style in which it is written, making it riveting reading. Another aspect which was striking was the manner in which the authors very successfully integrated historical and factual information. the book provides first-year students with a solid basis on which to continue studies in astronomy or physics. A magnificent example of what a book devoted to the practical teaching of astronomy in its first levels must be …an indispensable work
