Originally published in 1945, this book was principally intended as
a science book for schools to aid and assist classroom study and to
provide practical exercises to follow up and consolidate theory.
Topics are covered through multivariate analyses and range from
'Constellations' to 'Time' to 'The law of gravitation', whilst
relevant parts of the theory of light are also discussed, enabling
the principles of the telescope, spectroscope and atmospheric
refraction to be fully understood. Notably, questions for
self-study are also included as well as multiple diagrams and
photographs. Written from a historical, mathematical and
experimental standpoint, this book provides an introductory
treatment of astronomy and will be of great value to researchers
and scholars in the field and to anyone with an interest in the
history of education.
