In Part 1, the book describes the very latest thinking on solar
physics in (mostly non-mathematical) detail, incorporating the
latest results from research concerning the structure and behaviour
of the Sun. There is particular emphasis on the surface features
visible from the Earth, and how these are the result of the
extraordinary processes that are taking place within the Sun.
In Part 2, the book details the techniques for observing and
imaging the Sun with commercially-available equipment. The many
recent advances in optical equipment now allow amateur astronomers
to observe phenomena that until recently could only be seen with
the extremely expensive equipment available at universities and
research observatories notably H-alpha and Calcium-K
telescopes.
This is a completely up-to-date solar observing book, while
providing the science background necessary for an understanding of
the observations with the latest equipment. It also features the
most complete solar observing and imaging guide available."
