Rezension zu „Treasures of the Southern Sky “
From the reviews:"This book fully lives up to its name. Gendler ... have collected more than one hundred photographs of objects in the southern sky--images lush in detail and possessing an engrossing beauty. ... A true treasure of a book--one that can be enjoyed by anyone with an eye for beauty and curiosity about astronomy. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All levels/libraries." (K. D. Fisher, Choice, Vol. 49 (11), August, 2012)
"The book is a pleasure to handle and to look at, and has obviously been produced by enthusiasts to share their own expert awareness, admiration, and appreciation of the treasures to be found in southern skies. ... texts accompanying the illustrations are clear and helpful, and anyone interested in a well-chosen and spectacular array of New General Catalogue and Index Catalogue objects will not only enjoy it but also come away with a greater awareness of the amazing events taking place beyond the Solar System." (Colin Cooke, The Observatory, Vol. 132 (1229), August, 2012)
