Title: Excellent resource prior to any astronomical purchase
Review: I used the first edition to help guide me in the purchase of my telescope. The 2nd edition has kept pace with the rapid changes in amateur astronomy equipment. The strengths of the book are reviews of reflectors, eyepieces, and other "stuff". The author also provides many pearls for the novice and veteran observer. Specifics on some of the SCT's could be more detailed. However, the 2nd edition was invaluable in guiding my recent eyepiece purchaces. Highly recommeded for all amateur astronomers.
