Solar Astronomy- now available

[Merlin66 (Ken)]

Ivan,
There are copies of Zirin’s book on Abe and Google…..

[Londoner (Mick)]

I have just received an email from Axilone that my copy of Solar Astronomy is awaiting customs clearance in Roissy France prior to departure to Australia.

I ordered the book on 10th July and it was shipped on the 13th.
It appears that there is no cause for concern, in case any of you have not received your copies yet.

I ordered mine on the 30th of July, and on the 4th the tracking said it’s in Australia. No update since then.

Cheers,
Jason.

Ordered mine today, looks like its going to be a great reference for us solar observers and imagers.

Ordered on 6th July and arrived today on 12th August.

Well worth the wait, a handsome volume bursting with images, techniques, illustrations, etc.

Well done to the Authors and thanks for the heads up Ken.

Glossy high quality paper too.

Cheers

Now I have browsed a little more I am gobsmacked by the riches found therein.

Similarly, I am gobsmacked at what must have been a herculean effort in translating the book, it given the breadth and depth of technical content.

Good job Ken.

Cheers

Dennis

Dennis,
I appreciate the feedback.
I'm pleased the translation went so well, enjoy!

My order was placed 12th July and the book arrived today. You can cut and paste the tracking code that was sent by the publisher into Australia Post tracking and it may give you more of an idea where it's at. Mine sat at Paris airport from 20th July until it arrived in Sydney on the 19th August, then delivered to Gold Coast today.

[colour-coded (Alex)]

Just checked mine - both of the books, Solar and Planetary, are still in Paris. The solar is more than a month now

[koputai (Jason)]

Yeah, for mine the Paris tracking says its in Sydney, and the Sydney tracking says its in Paris.......


Cheers,
Jason.

At least you got tracking . I had no communication other than Paypal email. Ordered on July 9 & received yesterday so a bit of inconsistency there...but hope that reassures others. Book looks great.

I emailed the publisher, who sent me a tracking link, according to which my copy is still in Paris also. I would have thought it the responsibility of the sender here to enquire with La Poste as to why the packages have not left France in over a month. I'll give it some more time, but ultimately I will ask for a refund. I their email, Axilone Astronomy were blaming Australia Post

[koputai (Jason)]

I'm still happy to wait, I'm sure it will arrive some time.


Cheers,
Jason.

If its any consolation, the on-line link to the Tracking info' showed my book stuck in France for weeks and weeks, then suddenly, it arrived on my doorstep with no interim Tacking Info updates, so if the the tracking data does not update, it might be just that's how their system works?

Well worth the wait though.

Cheers

Mine turned up today ordered on the 9th of July.Don,t worry it will arrive.Remember a lot of big sorting centres are understaffed due to Covid-19.
