5.0 out of 5 stars
Good book on a wealth of topics, December 13, 1999
This review is from: Unsolved Problems in Astrophysics (Paperback)
This book provides a great amount of information on a wide variety of hot topics in contemporary astronomy, such as cosmology, AGNs, GRBs, and dark matter. My only complaint is that the material does tend to slant towards extragalactic astronomy. However, otherwise the material is extremely useful for someone looking for fresh material to work on. The references also provided within are great. The reading level is also easy, and is probably similar to Scientific American or Sky & Telescope.

As far as I have been able to see with cross-referencing and my own checks and double-checks, the information in this publication is accurate. The layman ought be able to understand it with minimal effort. Very readable.
