3.0 out of 5 stars
Poor layout but good material,
By A Customer
This review is from: Theoretical Astrophysics 3 Volume Paperback Set (Paperback)
I own the first 2 volumes of this set that I had to get for a Graduate Astrophysics class.In the chapters we covered relevant to Stellar Structures, I found that while these books contain pretty much everything you need to do a calculation, the material is so dense that you can pass right over an explanation. Volume I is entirely mathematical, all relevant formulas. The Index of the book is the worst part, you cant look up anything. It would be EXTREMELY helpful if he would fix that in a new edition. He also uses the same letter to represent different things within a chapter or subject. This gets annoying, but anyone in physics knows about this problem with any book you read. For example in the first chapter he uses 'K' to represent 5 things. |
