This book contains everything an astronomer needs to know about
binocular observing. The book takes an in-depth look at the
instruments themselves. It has sections on evaluating and buying
binoculars and binocular telescopes, their care, mounting, and
accessories. In addition there is a selection of fifty fine objects
to be seen with 50mm and 100mm binoculars. The advantages of using
both eyes for astronomical observing are many and considerable,
largely because of the way the human brain processes visual
information. This book enables the astronomer to maximize those
advantages.
