Astronomy: A Beginner's Guide to the Universe

exactly what I thought it was. Decent book, works great. Make the most of life.

After having problems with another seller for the same product. This seller was excellent, fast shipping, provided continuous communication in-order to be contacted, and considered the matter I dealt with previously, which, they expedited my order. I will most certainly purchase from this buyer again. Thank you again! Trina

The shipping was quicker than I expected, and the book was in good condition for a killer price (It retails for about $120!). I was very satisfied with my purchase.

Text book arrived in excellent condition (brand spankin' new) and in a timely manner (about 3 business days). I got a great deal too! No problems whatsoever. Thanks a bunch!

For anyone who has a vague interest in astronomy, this would be the book to read. Albeit not entirely simple, this is a relatively straight forward book that uses excellent examples to explain difficult concepts. There are many charts and diagrams. How exactly does a black hole work? What's the difference between a nova and a supernova (not as simple as you might think)? Why do we get meteor showers? There is a bit of mathematics involved, but nothing too intimidating. This is an excellent textbook. Best of all, a CD-ROM is included with lots of multimedia content, study questions, and links to more sources. Avoid other dry textbooks and purchase this one.
