From the Back Cover

This valuable reference fills a number of needs in the field of astronomical eyepieces, including that of a buyer's guide, observer's field guide and technical desk reference. It documents the past market for eyepieces and its evolution right up to the present day. In addition to appealing to practical astronomers - and potentially saving them money - it is useful both as a historical reference and as a detailed review of the current market place for this bustling astronomical consumer product. What distinguishes this book from other publications on astronomy is the involvement of observers from all aspects of the astronomical community, and also the major manufacturers of equipment. It not only catalogs the technical aspects of the many modern eyepieces but also documents amateur observer reactions and impressions of their utility over the years, using many different eyepieces. Eyepieces are the most talked-about accessories and collectible items available to the amateur astronomer. No other item of equipment commands such vigorous debate, or has evolved into such a remarkable array of forms and functions. But because of such riches, it is easy to get lost when trying to decide on what eyepieces to buy. This book will help readers choose the best eyepiece for them now and continue to serve as a treasure trove of information for years to come!

I have read a great many books on amateur astronomy and the necessary equipment needed to provide good views. Unfortunately I have often came away disappointed. This is because most such books are written with the beginner in mind. As such there is minimal space is afforded to the technical side of the hobby.This book is different. For one thing, the author has chosen a specific area of the hobby (eyepieces) and he stays on topic.He starts with a nice intro, discussing eyepiece basics such as how they are made, the different types, various configurations, and possible problems such as distortion.Having set that foundation, he then divides the eyepiece by their important characteristics, primarily the field of view that each provides.Finally, the writer lists a majority of all eyepieces under their manufacturers and in alphabetical order. He also provides the specifications when available. Included are a liberal number of illustrations and pictures, that are well placed, providing support for the text.This is the most comprehensive treatment of this subject I seen in print. And for that reason alone makes the book to be worth the price paid.The auther’s knowledge is easily displayed and is of such extent the reader finds it easy trust him. By the end of the book, there is no doubt that the writer knows of what he is writing.In all areas this is a well made book. It is nice looking, well organized, and though technology deep, nicely written. This is a good addition to anyone’s personal library and a must have reference.

For beginners and long time hobbyists.Finding the best eyepiece that fits your needs to view the universe through a telescope is essential.The oculars come in so many sizes with different field of views, eye relief, coatings, etc, it can be quit daunting to find the ones that meet your needs. This book can save you a lot of money or make you spend it on premium oculars, if you want the best. This bookcontains years of acquried information at your fingertips. The ocular oem's can mislead you via their advertisements, by not telling you the whole picture. My favorite part is on page 175'Some tips on viewing the Universe through an eyepiece. My little contribution.

This book, along with Choosing and Using Astronomical Filters, should be an essential part of any amateur astronomer's reference library. It will help cut through the noise from marketers and the "advice" from colleagues, putting in your own hands the tools you need to make informed decisions about whether or not you need to spend a small fortune on this or that eyepiece. If you are an amateur astronomer and don't have this book, get it. You'll be glad you did.

Written in a clear organized style, omitting virtually no aspect of astronomical eyepieces. This book is a comprehensive, excellent guide to choosing and using eyepieces for visual observation. Indispensable! Great drawings and photos. Highly recommended. Paolini has done a superb service to educate the amateur observer.

Whether you are a new astronomer or veteran, you will find Choosing and Using Astronomical Eyepieces a valuable reference. In addition to the basics of function and construction, the author offers a variety of strategies for building your eyepiece collections, representing many points of view. The last section is a comprehensive listing of common (and not so common) eyepieces past and present.

Good history book on lenses and there uses.

good book

There is so much information about eyepieces, it's like an encyclopedia! I refer to it often. Bill knows his stuff!
