 Language: English

 ISBN-10: 1573351652

 From School Library Journal
Grade 5-6--Two books that feature full- color photos and paintings, an easy text supplemented by comparatively long explanatory captions, and simply put information. Bender is specific about many kinds of Telescopes and the differences among them; he also discusses how large telescopes are mounted, how computers assist in deciphering astronomical data, and special problems encountered by astronomers who want to study neutrinos or the sun.  The illustrations are clear and useful. Graham skims through lasers (and their use in industry, medicine, and war) and holography at a more superficial level. 

Card catalog description: Demonstrates how telescopes operate, from the simplest to the most complex and sophisticated.
