Walker's Spectral Atlas
The long awaited print copy of Richard's excellent atlas will be available from CUP April next year.
The supporting Handbook by Richard and Marc will also be available.
A 20% pre-delivery discount is available, see the attached flyer.

Curses, i've already placed my Christmas orders.
I'd love to add those two books to my collection.

OK, I've been in contact with the authors and they have in turn managed to get CUP to acknowledge the Australian market (!?)
They have re-issued the flyer for Asia-Pac.
The discount code should now work.
Valid to the end of Jan 2017

I've just been advised it should be accessible from the 18th Jan.
I hope they are correct.

Gee, that's a fair bit more than the conversion of the price on the flyer. Even Cambridge's full price of £60.00 is only around $AUD 100.00 and Book Depository reckon the full price is $AUD 180.00

Update,
There is now a page available to pre-order the Atlas and Handbook with the 20% discount. The prices are quoted in us$ and the quoted postage is as usual a killer at us$40 for the set.
I'll post the link ASAP.

Beren,
Caution!
That's Marc's associated handbook, not Richard's atlas!
The atlas is $125.45

Glad to hear it's arrived!!
(Some of us are still waiting...........)
It will be interesting to see the differences between the book and the earlier webpage document.
I still believe Richard's Atlas and Kaler's "Stars and their spectra" are the best buys for any amateur interested in spectroscopy.
