This book is intended for amateur astronomers who are readers of
Sky & Telescope magazine or similar astronomy periodicals - or
are at least at the same level of knowledge and enthusiasm.
Supernovae represent the most violent stellar explosions in the
universe. This is a unique guide to supernova facts, and it is also
an observing/discovery guide, all in one package. Supernovae are
often discovered by amateur astronomers, and the book describes the
best strategies for discovering and observing them. Moreover, it
contains detailed information about the probable physics of
supernovae, a subject which even today is imperfectly understood.
