Editorial Reviews
The Space Book Board
"A magnificent example of what a book devoted to the practical teaching of astronomy in its first levels must be ...an indispensable work." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Review
… the strengths of the old version have been retained … and the book has been brought up to date with, for example, the sections on CCDs and modern telescopes.
- Vik Dhillon, Sheffield University, UK

Members will find themselves returning to it again and again for help with those really searching questions. A book worth considering.
- Jeffrey Barham, Popular Astronomy
