5.0 out of 5 stars Decent Astronomy Book for College
Reviewed in the United States on 16 February 2023
The book arrived in a decent amount of time, being in fairly good condition, albeit looking a little used. The price for it was a little high, but is much better than getting it at the college bookstore. Using this book for my astronomy class, and it's been helping me figure out the homework for that class. A decent book overall, would recommend for any student taking astronomy, and even for any astronomy nerds out there.
