Items related to Mathematical Astronomy Morsels IV
In his Preface, the author hints that some readers might accuse him of practicing "old" astronomy. Don't let that fool you. The problems that he tackles would have fascinated astronomers of the early 20th and prior centuries, but those poor souls faced a brick wall of computational difficulty. They had to work out all their answers laboriously, with a pencil and paper. Freed, from that limitation, the author uses today's computers to address each topic with a rigor and finesse beyond the wildest dreams of any old-time practitioner.
