Description

This text is for descriptive one-term astronomy courses (especially those with no mathematics prerequisites). The book's main theme is the process of scientific discovery, and readers will encounter spectacular sights, landmark experiments and discoveries, while learning to avoid the pitfalls created by common misconceptions about astronomy. This sixth edition is enhanced with a powerful technology and image projection package and the accompanying CDROM features a special student version of the virtual planetarium software "Starry Night". - from Amzon
