"This new volume in the Peterson Field Guide Series is the clearest, most complete pocket guide to the night sky ever published. The authoritative text by Donald H. Menzel, former director of the Harvard College Observatory, and numerous charts, photographs, drawings, and astronomical tables convey the basic information needed by amateur astronomers. Its 48 Sky Maps enable the observer, anywhere on earth, to identify the constellations and check the position of the brightest stars. The constellation drawings, based largely on the ingenious designs originated by H.A. Rey, actually resemble the figures the stars represent. For identifying the fainter stars, the book contains a comprehensive atlas of the sky. Each of its 54 charts appears twice, once as seen in the telescope and again on the facing page with the names of the stars, nebulae, clusters, and other objects superimposed. These charts and the accompanying text provide the reader with a pictorial road map to sky watching with binocular or telescope. A similar photographic atlas of he moon displays the topographic features of the earth's satellite in startling detail. Other sections of the book cover the solar system, the planets, and other bodies such as comets, meteors, and asteroids. Two chapters offer helpful information to the beginner about the use of the telescope and camera in astronomy. Those more advanced in their knowledge of astronomy will find useful the chapter on the intricacies of sidereal and solar time. This book will be invaluable to anyone who try to find his way around in the night skies to learn more about the earth's near and neighbors, with the naked eye, binocular, telescope."- Publisher

Several decades have elapsed since the publication of any similar book in the German language. The lack of such a book has been felt keenly by all friends of astronomy. In our space age, astronomical knowledge arouses public interest more and more. Practical observation at the telescope depends more than anything else on such knowledge. The educational value of such a training is undisputed. On the other hand, the work of the amateur astronomer can also contribute essentially to the work of the professionals. It is from these points of view that this handbook aims to help with versatile advice. At the same time, the book intends to show the wide range of applied astronomy, as it presents itself to the friend of the stars; in mathematical-physical fields, in precision mechanics and optics, and last but not least in the area of social relations. Beyond the circle of amateur astronomers the book is addressed to lecturers, teachers, students and pupils. It wishes to serve them as a guide to "astronomical experiments", which we suggest should be performed in primary and secondary schools, specialist colleges, and extramural courses.

Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts, which appears in semi-annual volumes, is devoted to the re cording, summarizing and indexing of astronomical publications throughout the world. It aims to pre sent a comprehensive documentation of literature in all fields of astronomy and astrophysics. Every effort will be made to ensure that the average time interval between the date of receipt of the original literature and publication of the abstracts will not exceed eight months. This time interval is near to that achieved by monthly issued abstracting journals, compared to which our system of accumulating abstracts for about six months offers the advantage of greater convenience for the user. Volume 2 contains literature published in 1969 and received before March 15, 1970; some older lite rature which was received late and which is not recorded in Volume 1 is also included. The authors of papers who have sent us abstracts on request have effectively contributed to the suc cess of our service. We should like to express our gratitude to them. We acknowledge with thanks con tributions to this volume by Dr. J. Bou~a, who surveyed journals and publications in Czech language and supplied us with abstracts in English, by Dr. B. Onderlicka, Brno, for providing English ab stracts of Russian papers, and by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (C.S.I.R.O.), Sydney, for providing titles and abstracts of papers on radio astronomy.
