OUR SECOND OFFERING, Fred Hoyle's 1965 "Galaxies, Nuclei, and Quasars," is a stated First Edition hardcover, fine in a near-fine jacket. Hoyle, Plumian Professor of Astronomy and Experimental Philosophy at Cambridge University, was on the staff of both the Mount Wilson and Palomar Observatories. He also wrote some science fiction, though this work (along with his earlier "Nature of the Universe" and "Frontiers of Astronomy") falls more into the category of "popularizing science." Includes a section on nuclear processes in stars. 160 pp., with numerous B&W illustrations; reduced from $18. The two books on related topics now combined into a lot to consolidate shipping charge.
