The Essential Cosmic Perspective builds on its long tradition of effective pedagogy and comprehensive coverage to provide non-science majors with a thoroughly engaging and up-to-date introduction to astronomy. As respected teachers and active researchers, the authors present astronomy using a coherent narrative and a thematic approach to guide students through connecting ideas.
The 9th Edition features major scientific updates and recent discoveries that focus on the possibility of life in the universe and provide modern contexts to help students see astronomy as relevant to their worlds. A new focus across science on cultural diversity among scientists and ethics offers inclusive content and a basis for group discussions.
