steppenwolf Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I was doing some research last night while capturing some comet data and came across this new book The Sky Above Us: Astronomy for Teenagers. Has anyone read it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dweller25 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Personally I think Trudie should stand on her own two feet and on her own merits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steppenwolf Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 Personally I think Trudie should stand on her own two feet and on her own merits.What an extraordinary thing to say - Patrick wrote several books in conjunction with other people, should they too have stood on their own two feet and on their own merits? Perhaps Patrick wanted a particular kind of input that Trudie was able to supply? I haven't read the book, I didn't know that it had been published until I saw the advert so I can't comment on what her contribution may have been but knowing Patrick, I doubt he would have entered into a collaboration without good reason? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostdance Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Reading the background on Amazon, the book certainly has SPM's imprimatur and was planned by him to be co-authored with Ms Rayner. It's been out since May 2014 so hopefully has already been enthusing its target audience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronin Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) My thought was could they not have located an image with less CA on it.She was likely in a position she could not win.Put SPM first and it does look a bit odd, put him second and she is pushing him to the background..
