Foundations of Astrophysics provides a contemporary and complete
introduction to astrophysics for astronomy and physics majors. With
a logical presentation and conceptual and quantitative
end-of-chapter problems, the material is accessible to introductory
astrophysics students taking a two-semester survey course. Starting
with the motions of the solar system and a discussion of the
interaction of matter and light, the authors explore the physical
nature of objects in the solar system, and the exciting new field
of exoplanets. The second half of their text covers stellar,
galactic, and extragalactic astronomy, followed by a brief
discussion of cosmology. This is a reissue of the original 2010
edition, which has established itself as one of the market-leading
astrophysics texts, well known for its clarity and simplicity. It
has introduced thousands of physical science students to the
breadth of astronomy, and helped prepare them for more advanced
studies.
