Synopsis

This book offers a structured method of applying celestial globes and terrestrial globes to increase understanding and enjoyment of geography and astronomy. The author imagines these instruments are designed to convey information about the motion of the Earth, its relationship with the sun, and the broader universe. Through the use of globes, the author demonstrates how to determine the location of places on the Earth's surface, explain phenomena caused by the Earth's motion, and observe the relative position of stars and planets. Questions posed in the text help the reader test their understanding of the concepts discussed. The author presents a practical method for applying globes to better understand our world.
