Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on Astronomical Spectroscopy
As the domain of astronomical spectroscopy has so constantly widened, every astrophysicist must have felt the increasing need of a work presenting an exhaustive account of all the modern methods and results of research in this branch of science. This need has been so strongly felt by myself as to impel me to undertake the difficult task of compiling a work of this character. The plan of the book indicates the view by Which I have been governed: I have endeavored. To satisfy the requirements both of practice and theory, while giving at the same time a record of the results thus far accomplished. I have also thought it desirable that the book should be made useful for practical work and advanced study by the addition of a number of spectroscopic tables and a fairly complete Bibliography.
