Reviews
"Gerald North is a well-established and very experienced astronomer who has published many books over the years...there is a useful set of appendices covering telescope collimation, testing optics and polar alignments...this is an excellent book you can either dip into or immerse yourself in, as the mood takes you." - Paul Money, Sky at Night, March 2013, '… engagingly written, and the author's enthusiasm constantly shows through … an attractive book that will serve as a useful guide to those about to enter this complex field.' The Observatory: A Review of Astronomy, "The list of people mentioned in the acknowledgements is itself enough to whet your appetite!...quickly realised that this book can be used in more than one way...I would recommend this book for an interested amateur astronomer." - John Chuter, Journal of the British Astronomical Association
