## Description

Buy Astrophysics: A Very Short Introduction Illustrated by Binney, James (ISBN: 9780198752851) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Fine little guide - Nice little book outlining principles of Astrophysics - I am studying a PT masters in Astrophysics, so a nice little crammer book. Fascinating field.
Review: Useful detailed level - It may be a very short introduction, but I've so far got only about 40% through it. Though I started from a 1950s engineering degree and a continued interest in astronomy, I've had to re-read several sections. But it does usefully go into much more detail than I had been aware of. I'll continue working through it.
