release notes/summary (backcover information)
Want to master astronomy or aerospace engineering
but are intimidated by the complex formulas and
equations? Tried other self-teaching guides but
were turned off by the dry, complicated
presentation? Problem solved! Astronomy Demystified
is a totally different, very entertaining, and
amazingly effective way to learn the mathematics,
fundamentals, and general concepts of astronomy.
With Astronomy Demystified, you ease into the subject
one simple step at a time û at your own speed. Unlike
most other books on the topic, general concepts are
presented first û and the details follow. In order to
make the learning process as clear and simple as
possible, heavy-duty math, formulas, and equations are
kept at a minimum.
THIS UNIQUE, SELF-TEACHING TEXT OFFERS:
- Questions at the end of every chapter and section to
reinforce learning and pinpoint your weaknesses
- A 100-question final exam for self-assessment
- Tips on how to get the most out of observational
tools such as binoculars and telescopes
- Discussion of the special problems associated with
observing the sky at ôinvisible wavelengthsö
- An easy way to understand the math involved in
astronomy
Simple enough for a beginner but comprehensive enough
for an advanced student, Astronomy Demystified is your
short cut to understanding the heavens.

We've heard a lot of static on the lines about the
PNGs.
The bottom line is: if you don't like the format,
and don't want to convert the PNGS yourself to the
format that best suits your particular fetish, go buy
the book and STFU.
And yes, we have explored the various conversion
utilities out there (such as the ones that convert
images to PDF), and have determined that the final
presentation is sub par in quality. However, if YOU
like the outcome, by all means go and convert it
yourself! No one's stopping you. We have already
explained why the bulk of our material will be
released as PNGs, and canning them into a PDF isn't
something we're interested in doing (think for a
moment, what if someone wants to OCR the books,
they'd then have to get yet another utility to
convert BACK to images from the PDF, and round
and round it goes).
Why the PNGs?
The process by which a treeware tome is transformed
into a digital reincarnation of its former self is
an arduous and perilous one. The deceptively
simplistic four-step skeletal structure of said
process is as follows:
i. scan book
ii. OCR book
iii. proofread book
iv. format book
Despite the prevalence of the mistaken belief that
the first step--the scanning--is the most time
consuming process, a standard 200-page volume can
easily be scanned in under an hour at the standard
acceptable settings of 300dpi, grayscale.
No, the fun starts after the book has been OCRed
(whereupon the image of the text becomes transformed
into actual ASCII/Unicode characters). OCR engines
being the error prone little bastards that they are,
the existence of errors following the OCR process in
the text is all too commonplace.
Thus, the text must be carefully proofread not only to
remove misspelled words (and to double-check to make sure
they weren't intentionally misspelled in the treeware
edition), but must also remove the occasional artifacts
that were not but dust on the page and yet were
considered to be valid characters by the OCR engine, and
other such nuisances.
Throughout this process, one must have the original
pages (either the original treeware or the scanned
images) on hand for quick reference to make sure that
one has remained faithful to the treeware copy, our
de facto critical edition, such as there is.
The proofreading process thus takes significantly longer
than the actual scanning, not to mention that it is often
best to have more than one person proof the book for
increased accuracy.
Thus, we will now be releasing a large portion of our library
in the form of high-quality PNG images.
You are free to OCR/proofread them yourselves, and then
redistribute them amongst friends and loved ones.
Or, if you just want an easy way to view the PNGs, simply
load them into an image viewer that allows for zoom-lock,
such as ACDSee.
