"Best" Hubble coffee table book?

[GazOC]

Hi Guys/ Gals,

The book in the link below got a good review in this months AN and is a reasonable price. Are there any other similar, large format Hubble books I should consider before I buy this one?

I saw a hardback coffee table book a while ago entitled "Hubble". It could have been the same as the one in the link but it cost 80 euros.

'Deep Space - The Universe from the beginning' by Stuart Clark is a nice book, I have that one and can recommend it. It's mainly hubble photos but it has some others too, and on amazon it is not too pricey.

Another good coffee table book is "Orbit:Images taken by astronauts from space"..........or something similar.

It has fantastic images of the Earth's surface taken from the shuttle. Its not too expensive. The hardback is about £30.

Well worth it.

Don't buy it from e-bay! Same book is £9.99 in The Works bookshops- treated myself to one for cloudy night reading. The images are indeed excelent.

Atlas of the Messier Objects, Robert Stoyan, one very big and beautiful book, recommended by Sir PM as the best he has read on the subject.
