Review title: Still a gem after all these years. A tad dated but well worth a read.
Product review: I first read this book back in 1963 and now with some time on my hands I decided to give it another go. This is an excellent introduction to gravity suitable for middle school to high school students. Gamov in his day put out some superb books for the general reader (remember '123 Infinity'), and this is one of those general reader books. However, much of the book is now dated especially the part on relativity and unsolved issues. Nevertheless for basic gravitational concepts such as orbits etc it is still a gem. To help matters there is a crisp chapter on calculus.Time has dated this classic but I believe that for basic general concepts this book is still worth a read.
