COLOURS OF THE GALAXIES
Colours of the Galaxies uses spectacular photography to show the colours of stars, galaxies and nebulae. It lucidly explains what colour is and how it reveals the physical nature of astronomical bodies.
Spiral Structure in Galaxies
How does it happen that billions of stars can cooperate to produce the beautiful spirals that characterize so many galaxies, including ours? This book reviews the history behind the discovery of spiral galaxies and the problems faced when trying to…
In darkness born
First published in 1988 In Darkness Born brings together diverse work from many different branches of astronomy and shows clearly the synthesis of ideas that has resulted. The book presents the basic physical and astronomical ideas that are adequate…
Structure and Evolution of the Stars
Originally published in 1958, this was a ground breaking work in the field. Topics covered are the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, basic physical processes, mathmatic fundamentals of the theory of stellar structure, hydrostatic and thermal equilibrium,…

An Introduction to the Evolution of Single and binary Stars
Introduces the physics behind single and binary stellar evolution, assuming no prior knowledge of astronomy
Focuses on the evolution of stars to the end point of white dwarf, neutron star, and black hole binary systems
Fills the niche between…
Particles and Astrophysics
This book is an introduction to “multi-messenger” astrophysics. It covers the many different aspects connecting particle physics with astrophysics and cosmology and introduces astrophysics using numerous experimental findings recently obtained…
Astronomical Applications of Astrometry
The Hipparcos satellite, developed and launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) in 1989, was the first space mission dedicated to astrometry – the accurate measurement of positions, distances, and proper motions of stars. Amongst the key…
