Title: An Unreadable Treatise on Dynamical Astronomy
Review: I was delighted to find a copy of the out-of-print monograph, "An Introductory Treatise On Dynamical Astronomy," by Henry Plummer, available on Amazon. I had been using our library copy for research and wanted one of my own. Unfortunately, when the book arrived, the section I was interested in was completely unreadable. The publishers have tried to make old useful books available by reprinting facsimile versions, a laudable goal. But their work is so sloppy on this one that it accomplishes nothing. There are clearly many copies of the book that are in fine readable shape -- I have seen two in the only two libraries I have looked in -- so the blurred copy that they sell for $36.95 represents a careless attempt to make a quick buck.
Is the review positive or negative?
