"EXOPLANET OBSERVING FOR AMATEURS"
Second Edition
For sale exclusively by Adirondack Astronomy http://www.astrovid.com/.
This Second Edition has a larger page format (to accomodate pictures and graphs that tend to be wider than they are tall), is 70% longer (253 pages), has more easily understood explanations for more material, includes an expanded glossary (9 pages) and index (10 pages), has more appendices (10), and all pictures and graphs are in color (no center insert of color versions of pictures and graphs, as in the First Edition). Price established established by Adirondack is $40. I have no financial interest in the book and am letting Adirondack sell it at their price because they know how to promote it to a wider community of amateurs.
Here's the Table of Contents: ToC2
Spreadsheets described in the book are availalbe for free download here: http://brucegary.net/book_EOA/xls.htm
