Eclipses have captured attention and sparked curiosity about the
cosmos since the first appearance of humankind. Having been blamed
for everything from natural disasters to the fall of kings, they
are now invaluable tools for understanding many celestial as well
as terrestrial phenomena. This clear, easy-to-understand guide
explains what causes total eclipses and how they can be used in
experiments to examine everything from the dust between the planets
to general relativity. A new chapter has been added on the eclipse
of July 11, 1991 (the great Hawaiian eclipse). Originally published
in 1995. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
