[Gottzi]

[Starlight 1]

I got the new one but all I can say about it , up to date for the next 10 years.

[Stargazer Jack]

I have it and IMHO it is a superb book

[Telrad]

Thanks for the Heads Up!

I cannot compare it to previous editions. I have the ring bound version (4th edition) and I have enjoyed reading it.

I was wondering if there were any added objects ect. I hear there's a big apeture perspective as well as small scope.

Am I right in thinking http://www.amazon.co.uk/Turn-Left-Orion-Hundreds-Telescope/dp/0521153972/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1323446533&sr=8-1 is the new 4th edition? Don't want to order the old edition by mistake.

I have the latest spiral bound edition. Its up to date for many years of viewing to come. The comparison between scopes and eyepieces on every chart is about as good as it gets because the pages are big. I have Sky Atlas as well and both are all you need.

That's the one .

£18.00 here.

Am I right in thinking Turn Left at Orion: Hundreds of Night Sky Objects to See in a Home Telescope - and How to Find Them: Amazon.co.uk: Guy Consolmagno, Dan M. Davis: Books is the new 4th edition? Don't want to order the old edition by mistake.

Yes it is.

"[spiral-Bound]"

Also, under 'Product Details' (about 1/5th the way down the page)

"Publisher: Cambridge University Press; 4 Revised & enlarged edition (22 Sep 2011)"

Bought this myself and it is a good read and contains lots of useful info, especially for someone just starting out, like me.

[Stevo]

I'm another one who's got it for Christmas.

Can't wait.
