Penguins of the World
de Wayne Lynch(Ed. Firefly Books Ltd) Isbn : 1552091805
30.29 €
Looking like a group of elegantly dressed gentlemen at a formal function, penguins remind us of ourselves. According to author Wayne Lynch, part of our curiosity about these stocky little birds is related to just that -- their almost human behaviors. Like us, they live in communities where they play and fight with one another, steal from each other, hunt for food, quarrel with their mates, form lasting pair bonds, separate, commit infidelities and care for and sometimes neglect or even kill...

de Rosalind Kerven(Ed. Philip's) Isbn : 0540063177
11.8 €
Look to the stars--and find them, at any evening hour, any season of the year! And don't forget the planets, too. You'll feel as if you have a personalized tour guide to outer space (as seen in the northern latitudes) when you set the date and time on this movable disk. Hold the planisphere directly overhead and with the midnight mark pointing north. All the constellations on the map will then come into focus for you. Just begin by locating one, and move along the sky, helped by the lines joining the stars on the chart. Finding the planets takes a little more work, because they all revolve at different rates and can't be plotted permanently; but the tables will show you how to figure out the position of the brightest (Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn). Bonus: you can calculate sunrise and ...

de Simon Barnes(Ed. Pantheon Books) Isbn : 0375423559
17.06 €
Look out the window. See a bird. Enjoy it. CONGRATULATIONS! You are now a bad birdwatcher. Inthis refreshingly irreverent introduction to the subject, Simon Barnes makes birdwatching simple-and above all, enjoyable. Anyone who has ever looked up at the sky or gazed out the window knows a thing or two about birds. Who doesn't know the brisk purpose of a sparrow, the airy insouciance of the seagull, the dramatic power of the hawk? Birds are beautiful, you can encounter them anywhere, and they embody one of the primal human aspirations: flight. Birdwatching starts, simply, with a habit of looking. You let birds into your life a little at a time. You remember bird names as you would the names of people you've enjoyed meeting. And if you share your looking and listening with other people, so mu...

The Impact of Long-Term Monitoring on Variable Star Research: Astrophysics, Instrumentation, Data Handling, Archiving
de Christiaan Sterken(Ed. Springer) Isbn : 0792329139
275.43 €
Long-term monitoring is of fundamental significance in solving many important problems in astrophysics and, furthermore, has unequalled value in extending observational runs with small telescopes for the education of young astronomers in order to teach them how to secure high-quality observational data over many years. The Impact of Long-Term Monitoring on Variable Star Research contains reports based on the analysis of data collected in the visible, IR and radio measurement ranges, as well as the design and history of well known photometric systems. Though the reporting of novel results forms an important part of the book, there are also reports of eight discussion sessions covering more general areas, such as extinction monitoring, the problems of archival storage of astronomical data, s...
