This brief paperback text incorporates the hallmarks of the Chaisson/McMillan texts: an exceptional writing style, an emphasis on critical thinking and visualization, and a leading-edge technology program. Designed for students with little or no scientific background, Astronomy, 2/e has been streamlined throughout with a more open, student-friendly design. In addition, a free electronic multimedia version of the text is included with each copy. The CD contains approximately 35 updates on events and discoveries that have occurred since the print based book was published.
