Details
"A History of Astronomy" by David Leverington is a astronomy book and space science reference focused on General Astronomy. Best for students, researchers, and serious astronomy enthusiasts.
This is perhaps the only comprehensive account of the last 100 years of dramatic advances in astronomy. A History of Astronomy charts the progress of astronomy from the days when Newtonian physics reigned supreme, photography was in its infancy, and radio astronomy was yet unimagined, right to the present day. This concise book demonstrates that, paradoxically, the cosmos seems to hold more mysteries today than it did a hundred years ago.
