Foundations of Astronomy by Michael A. Seeds (2006, Hardcover)

Product was shipped quickly and received in the condition it was specified in. I was very satisfied with how smoothly every step of the process went.

Essentially, Michael A. Seeds 9th & 10th editions of "Horizons" and "Foundations of Astronomy" are similar in chapters; however "Foundations..." does have about a hundred pages extra pages. An instructor would find a slight frustration in trying to run a class and have students inter-exchanging book copies. Either the student would have to much information and would miss the library research or the instructor could be using the smaller book and the student may have the advantage of the extra reference.

The books are written to the novice and don't be mislead with the "Foundations" as this book will stimulate the more advanced expert equally.

the book was in better condition than i thought for a really good price but the shipping was slower than expected.

The inside of the textbook was is excellent shape, but the cover of the book was not attached to the book at the spine. We had to reglue it so the book was useable.

This is a good book. I bought it to use for my Astronomy 101 class. It covers the material the instructor teaches and is straight forward on the subject matter. All and all I think it is a good book i'm mainly using it for class so that is all i really know about it.

i needed the book for school....now i dropped the class...it was a waste of money......it was expensive......
