Astronomy"...Edberg and Levy guide the beginner every step of the way, never taking anything for granted. But though they start simple, they take you as far as you could want to go...if you are interested in astronomy you can start simple and work your way up to professional standard. This is an excellent place to start on that road."   John Gribbin, New Scientist"This collaboration is a comprehensive reference and guide to exactly what the title suggests.  Even those not engaged in systematic observation will find the book clarifies how observations are conducted.  This is an excellent addition to libraries, for it will be consulted every time any of these phenomena command attention."   Griffith Observer
