Astronomy is still one of the few sciences where the amateur can play a useful role and may even make important discoveries. Teach Yourself Astronomy is the ideal book for someone who would like to take a real interest in astronomy, but does not know where to start.

No previous knowledge is assumed, and the reader is guided through the basics of this science, helped by diagrams throughout the text.

The book includes how to observe the sun, moon, planets, and other bodies such as comets. It covers the basic facts and a straightforward introduction to Cosmology. It also explains what you can see with the naked eye and inexpensive equipment.

Written by the world's most popular astronomer, this book benefits greatly from his superior knowledge and experience in the field, and also includes a selection of photographs from his private collection.
