Review: Comprehensive and detailed but never dense. - This book is an excellent, comprehensive, but surprisingly easy to read. It is lavishly illustrated with many notes describing the science or the scientists in greater detail. I assume this book to be a standard textbook but it doesn't always feel like it. If I have any criticism it is that the paperback version is too "soft" so it needs to sit on a desk or similar to be comfortable- definitely not easy to read on the train.
Review: Excellent Text Book and Tutor - Excellent. Well written. Authoritative.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Text Book and Tutor
*by E***R on 15 September 2016*

Excellent. Well written. Authoritative.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ An enjoyable read, well illustrated and comprehensive
*by A***T on 7 March 2020*

An excellent source of general background knowledge to form a good foundation upon which to build. Interesting too for amateur astronomers like myself, although as a physical science graduate I sometimes found myself wanting to see more mathematics. I nevertheless very much enjoyed reading this book and am glad I bought it.
