About the book*

Radio Astronomy by Adele D. Richardson is a concise, 32-page introduction to the field of radio astronomy, tailored for readers aged 9 to 12. Part of the "Above and Beyond" series, the book explores the science of radio astronomy since its discovery in 1932. 

The book likely covers foundational concepts such as the nature of radio waves and their role in astronomical observations. It may discuss the development and use of radio telescopes, key discoveries like pulsars and quasars, and the significance of radio astronomy in enhancing our understanding of the universe. Given its target audience, the content is probably presented in an accessible manner, supplemented with illustrations to aid comprehension.

While specific chapter details are not readily available, the book serves as an educational resource for young readers interested in astronomy and the technological advancements that allow scientists to explore the cosmos through radio waves.

We actually have the book and take a look at it to determine the book's condition. We ship in protective packing to ensure it arrives in the best possible shape during shipping. 

While we try to indicate the condition of all books, used books may have publisher or retail store merchant price stickers, writing or residuals or original pricing imprints and those may not be indicative of and differ from current pricing. Used books may have original or owners name, etc written or stamped in book. Stickers such as original or old pricing, inventory, etc may still be on the book as well as spots where the sticker has been previously removed. We do our best to describe the book in the condition notes above as well. Subject to shelf wear, the picture is the actual item photo. If we have more than one, we will endeavor to show the worst book or list separately. Pricing is based on today's value and not old price stickers.

We pack and ship with care! We do this right, unlike some of the other mega warehouse sellers who really haven't even looked at the book and then toss it in a cheap bag for shipping. We do better than that, and we suspect you expect better if you collect and value good books.
