Foundations of Astronomy brings science to life.

With this newly revised Eleventh Edition of Foundations of Astronomy,
best-selling authors Mike Seeds and Dana Backman strive to help student
use astronomy to understand science.and use science to understand what
we are. Fascinating, engaging, and extremely visual, this text emphasizes
the scientific method throughout as it guides students to answer two
fundamental questions:

What are we?
And how do we know?

In discussing the interplay between evidence and hypothesis,
the authors provide not only fact but also a conceptual framework for
understanding the logic of science. The Eleventh Edition addresses the
newest developments and latest discoveries in the exciting study of
astronomy, including information to emphasize observations over the entire
electromagnetic spectrum; new data on star formation and stellar structure;
new insight on global warming and ozone depletion; updated information on
the Kuiper belt and dwarf planets; and more.
