Astronomy Now From the hardback review: '... the meat of this book is its practical content, which has the feel of people who really know what they are talking about...though they start simple, they take you as far as you could want to go, including the use of the CCD detectors ... whatever your day job, 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.' New Scientist From the hardback review: 'For me, the best part is David Levy's account of comet-hunting. A successful hunter himself, Levy has many tips to share.' The Observatory
