There's a review of it in the Reviews section.

I believe it is a worthwhile purchase. It's been reported to be available at quite a discount in the big chain stores (not bookstores) - search the threads here for information.

I've seen copies of this in Lismore at both Dymocks and the Book Warehouse.
The book Warehouse will usual be cheaper than Dymocks.

I found the book very readable and continue to enjoy using it as a very useful reference for astronomy down under. I paid the full price at the time, but it was worth it!

Cheers
