WONDER OF THE HEAVENS by Arthur Draper

WONDER OF THE HEAVENS

By

Publisher: Random House

This is a beginning astronomy, written by a scientist whose practical experience in a Planetarium has given him the contact with boys and girls which is necessary before writing the answers to the questions they would ask. From the rainbow and the shooting stars, he progresses to the reasons behind things, to first steps in understanding the fringes of scientific knowledge of the sun, the moon, the planets.
