6 Incorportaing a full-colour illustration programme throughout, this book presents the universe in which we live, beginning with objects close to us and extending to the most distant objects in the universe. An historical treatment sets the stage, followed by discussions of the tools and methods astonomers use to make observations and identify relationships within the universe. The text focuses on the earth and solar system, the sun star, the stars in general, the Milky Way galaxy and cosmology. It starts with concepts developed first in light of everyday experiences, using little mathematics and when necessary developing maths within the text itself, describing in prose first, any ideas that are expressed mathematically.
