Free Astronomy e-Book
Posted by Brian Ventrudo
Four times a year, Amazon lets me give sometime away. So here goes…
I’m offering my one and only e-book “The One-Minute Astronomer: Tips, Tales, and Tours for the Casual Stargazer” at no cost.
This e-book is a collection of more than 110 short and easy-to-read articles about stargazing, articles that will inform, inspire, and intrigue you, whether you’re an experienced stargazer or a complete beginner. Most of these articles take just a minute or two to read and help you cultivate your fascination with the night sky. You can find the book here…
(and in the U.K. here… http://amzn.to/S1iYmb)
With this ebook, you’ll get ideas on how to choose and use telescopes and accessories, along with techniques to help you get the most out of whatever equipment you have, whether it’s binoculars, a telescope, or simply your unaided eyes.
You’ll discover stories of intriguing astronomers both famous and obscure who made discoveries, sometimes in the face of formidable obstacles, that changed our understanding of the universe.
And you’ll make short visits to sights in the solar system and deep sky to learn a little of the science of astronomy, and gain the pleasure of seeing some of the most beautiful sights in nature.
Get a copy for yourself.
Share these links with friends and colleagues who may be interested in stargazing.
And pass this opportunity on to your astronomy club, or your favourite science teacher, or anyone else who may wish to know more about the night sky.
The e-book is available at no cost at the Amazon Kindle store until midnight (Pacific Daylight Time) on Saturday, October 20, 2012. Get the book here:
