Great for beginners! As a kid, I had an older edition, and that spurred my interest in astronomy growing up. I got one for my little brother, and he loves it!
Exceeded expectations. I was advice by my professor to get this edition. The book has great images and fold-out posters, fulfill visual wonders of the universe and planets. It is also written fairly well.
