Spaceflight 'The book is well laid out, with much to hold the attention of amateurs who are involved in digital imagining techniques ... I would recommend it to the practical CCD user.' Kevin Sweeney, Astronomy and Space '... covers everything from mundane but vital considerations such as precautions against frost, to the mathematics of image restoration and astrometry. As well as a guide to using these instruments, the concise format, clear diagrams and illustrations make it a handy and concise reference book.'
