Product Description
This is a survey of our current knowledge of the closest and most important star. It unravels the complexities of astrophysics in language that is easy to understand. After reviewing how our knowledge of the Sun has been acquired over the centuries, it explains how the Sun - as viewed from the Earth and from space - is investigated, the key people and instruments involved with these discoveries, the results so far, and what we still have to learn. Fully illustrated and complete with appendices, this text should appeal to the general public, amateur astronomers and students.
