Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - A corrected reprint of the rst edition appeared in 2000.

(4. 36)), Table 5. 2 (concerning UKIRT), Table A. 15 ( rst symbol), pages 505 (Ref. 3. 71) and 531 (Brown and Cassegrain). Several of these errors were pointed out by readers, to whom I express my gratitude. The present 2nd edition contains all the material of the rst edition, - changed apart from some further corrections, but with 25 pages more of - ditional explanations or new material, including 5 new gures (2 in Chap. 4, 2 in Chap. 5 and 1 following the Portrait Gallery).…
