Críticas:
..".an up-to-date, sophisticated, beautifully illustrated, and not too complicated synopsis of virtually everything that relates to the field of astronomy. Moore's book aspires to and succeeds in representing both a valuable reference and an enjoyable read-through. By containing the latest maps and nomenclature, in addition to recent full-color Hubble Telescope images, the Atlas of the Universe provides a complete treatment of astronomy...a valuable addition to any bookshelf." Yale Scientific Magazine
Reseña del editor:
Atlas of the Universe is a definitive reference to the stars, the planets and their moons, and the universe. It is richly illustrated with hundreds of recent photographs and images from ground-based telescopes, the Hubble Space Telescope, and interplanetary spacecraft. In addition to a beautiful and informative portrait of the cosmos, this book provides superb star charts with sound advice on practical observing. There are seven sections: exploring the universe, the solar system, the Sun, the stars, star maps, and practical astronomy.
