The de Vaucouleurs Atlas of Galaxies
"Although numerous catalogs have been published that describe the de Vaucouleurs system, no photo extensive atlas has been available to illustrate the de Vaucouleurs system until now."Publisher Review"This book provides a comprehensive and detailed study of the morphology of normal and nearby galaxies as classified by de Vaucouleurs. It brings the subject up to date with the latest thoughts on how to organize galaxies and includes images of more than 500 star systems grouped appropriately. ... I recommend this book to both professional galaxy researchers and amateurs who love to hunt for the 'faint fuzzies' and want to learn more about what they are observing through the eyepiece." - Robert A. Garfinkle, Sky & Telescope"...an excellent reference manual for professionals and the serious amateur astronomer...This superb up-to-date informative refernece work is one that should be in the possession of any galaxy enthusiast and, of course, observatory technical libraries."  --Astronomy Now
