Modern Astronomy
By H. H. TURNER, F.R.S
Savilian Professor of Astronomy in the University of Oxford, Fellow of
New College, Oxford, etc.
Crown 8vo, 6s. net.
The book is an attempt to show the vast changes which have taken place
in the methods and scope of astronomy during the last quarter of the century
—changes so far-reaching that their full import has not yet been realized by
astronomers themselves.
“ The imperfect precis which we have been able to give of Professor Turner’s
luminous and instructive work will, we can only trust, send the reader to that
work itself to perfect his information. Assuredly from no other extant will he
be able to derive so clear and intelligent an idea of the capital advances made
in modern astronomy.”—The Observatory.
“ He writes with the clearness of a mathematician and the warmth of an
apostle, desirous, above all things, in the interest of the science he loves.”—
Academy.

“ Mr. Blount has succeeded in compiling a really valuable handbook. . . .
The expert, as well as the student, will be grateful for this addition to their
technical library.”—Hardwareman.
“ A valuable addition to the literature of this subject.”—Bookman.
“ A volume interesting and clearly written . . . shows that he has an
adequate grasp of the subject.”—Chemical Trade Journal.
