The book begins with relevant scientific fundamentals and progresses through an exploration of the solar system, stars, galaxies, and cosmology. The Astronomy textbook builds student understanding through the use of relevant analogies, clear and non-technical explanations, and rich illustrations.

Understanding the behavior of charges and the electromagnetic waves they produce has led to vast technological advances and the ability to examine the universe and make sense out of what we see.
