With previous owner's name, otherwise a fine hardcover first edition copy, no DJ, blue spine. The cosmetology of Cosmology, I sure could have used this book when I studied physics.

About this title

Synopsis

Using an extremely accessible approach, the authors present a fascinating look at how cosmic structures, such as galaxies and clusters, began and evolved. After introducing readers to the simplest cosmological models and basic observational cosmology, they detail the Big Bang theory and the theory of structural formation by gravitational instability. The book concludes with observational techniques for testing models of large-scale structure origin in the universe. Features discussions of recent spectacular breakthroughs including the COBE satellite discoveries.

Store Description

The Reader's Corner is such fun,it's too bad you have to buy our books on line. We have eight foot tall outside bookshelves across the entire front of the store. There is a money slot in the door for night sales, which go to support National Public Radio. Inside, which can be too crowded at times, are surprisingly good books, only 1% are ever listed on-line. We also sell records, music cd's, comic books, mags, computer software and games. Best of all is the found art decorating every spare spot. The motto on the front door: NO SHOOTING, NO SMOKING, NO MOONING THE MANAGEMENT.
