EDITORIAL INFORMATION

When we look into the night sky, thousands of stars twinkle back at us. We see cool red stars, hot blue stars, big stars and small stars. We find young stars and old stars, single stars and doubles. Some are astonishingly bright, while others hardly shine at all. Tha variety is astounding, even a bit overwhelming. How can the nascent stargazer begin to understand all the cosmos has to offer? In this book, James B. Kaler paints intimate portraits of the 100 stars he likes best. With an infectious enthusiasm, Kaler tell us about his favorites and, in the process, shows us how each star fits into the development and evolution of the cosmos.
