From the Author
Readers love the numerous NASA photographs and illustrations, especially in the eBook and full-color print editions. They also appreciate the clear explanations to basic concepts. The ordering of the book is also convenient, beginning with basics and gradually increasing the difficulty. This book, An Introduction to Basic Astronomy Concepts, has much range and depth, and numerous figures, with 186 pages in print. (The author's other astronomy book, Basic Astronomy Concepts Everyone Should Know, is much more condensed, and reads more like an illustrated children's book, with 40 print pages.)
