Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great little book
This is a fun little book that is well written. I would recommend it to all beginners.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book!
I just bought this book April 30th. I've read nearly half of it already. This is a great introduction to the science and hobby of astronomy. The author's easy manner make reading fun, and understanding easy. I recommend this to anyone wanting to learn about astronomy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Expectation
If there is a rank below amateur, then I hold it. This book is crisp, delightful and helpful.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good for beginners
Thorough on most matters, though a little light on the Big Bang, quasars, antimatter, and Stephen Hawkings. But strong on SETI and other revolving planets. And I enjoyed the space mission coverage. Overall, gets the job done.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good but
A fine book except for one major flaw on page 236. Intelligence is not a rare accident in biological evolution. Readers and authors who think so should study E. Raymond Capt's "The Glory of the Stars."
