For anyone starting out in the hobby it is an excellent book which provides easy to read information on the A to Z of Eyepieces and for those who have been observing for some time I suspect it would be a good reference book.
The author William Paolini has had quite an accomplished professional career and has been an amateur astronomer for over 50 years.
I can highly recommend this book if you are starting out in amateur astronomy.
