[edit] TOWARDS THE EDGE OF THE UNIVERSE
'Towards the Edge of the Universe' reviews contemporary discoveries and ideas, discusses areas of controversy, and presents a variety of observational data, in a manner designed to be accessible to students from a wide range of related subjects.
Towards the Edge of the Universe is the second edition of a successful textbook, previously published by Wiley-Praxis It reviews the latest discoveries and ideas, discusses areas of controversy, and presents a variety of observational data, in a way suitable as an introduction to Cosmology for University students studying the following courses: Astronomy, Astrophysics, Cosmology, Partical Physics, Theoretical Physics and Space Science. The author considers the most contemporary views of cosmology by describing the Big Bang model (its problems as well as its usefulness), and begins with a comprehensive account of the universe and its components, providing a sound introduction for the student. A generally descriptive (rather than purely mathematical) approach makes the book accessible to all levels of student. Priced at an affordable level for students - despite the inclusion of many illustrations and some full colour photographs - the previous Wiley-Praxis (1997) edition was successful in Europe and America. This new edition incorporates some revisions, but is expected to continue as a useful textbook with a valuable 'additional market' among serious astronomers.
