A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

"Observing the Sun is becoming more and more popular these days ... . there s a whole range of Coronado solar telescopes on offer. This book aims to clarify the differences between them and give you solid advice on what each one can do. ... The chapters are well written and comprehensive. ... this is actually a very useful resource if you re interested in pursuing solar observing or imaging not just if you have a scope made by Coronado in your garage. ... it s highly recommended." --Pete Lawrence, BBC Sky at Night, April, 2008

"Philip Pugh s new book, which includes contributions from several expert coauthors, covers more ground than its title suggests including gear from other manufacturers. ... I think it serves as a valuable reference and a worthwhile review of the current state of the art of daytime amateur astronomy." --Rick Fienberg, Sky and Telescope, July, 2008

"This book does exactly what it says on the cover and more. It covers the whole gambit of solar observation in both red hydrogen light (hydrogen-alpha) and violet calcium light (CaK) and is profusely illustrated with telescopes, accessories and innumerable solar images. ... The text is upbeat ... . this is an excellent book and essential reading for all interested in this fascinating area of observation no less in that it occurs at sociable daylight hours!" --Maurice Gavin, Astronomy Now, June, 2008
