Astronomy: The Study of the Universe

36 pp. | Gareth | September, 2002 | Library ISBN 0-8368-3229-9 $$22.60
(4) 4-6 Investigating Science series. This overview of astronomy discusses the birth and death of stars, cosmic puzzles, and techniques and equipment of astronomers. For each subtopic, a short summary paragraph is surrounded by captioned color photos, a few diagrams, and other drawings. The information is generally accurate, but the busy pages with small, vertically elongated typeface become tiring to read. Bib., glos. ind.
