{"product_id":"the-under-standing-of-eclipses-guy-ottewell-9780934546744","title":"The Under-Standing of Eclipses","description":"This book (now in a 5th edition) methodically explains why eclipses of the sun and moon happen, their intricate patterns in time and space - and why they are so exciting.There are page-spreads, with dynamic globe diagrams, for examples of the main kinds of eclipse and several curious cases such as a \"broken-ring eclipse\", a \"geometrically tight eclipse\", a \"globe-skimming eclipse\". There is lingering many-page treatment of two great solar eclipses: the \"ideal\" one of July 1991 that went over Hawaii, Baja California, and Mexico; and that of August 2017 across the U.S.A. from Oregon to South Carolina.Rich illustrations, including the 12-page \"bead curtain\" chart of all eclipses from 1901 to 2116; \"Eclipse stories\" (with some cartoons); eclipses of the future; tables; index.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Guy Ottewell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0934546746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780934546744\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Universal Workshop\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/21\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.31d","brand":"Guy Ottewell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44063498469631,"sku":"9780934546744","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_97fea3fb-e193-4c25-9d47-47813a976414.jpg?v=1685389913","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-under-standing-of-eclipses-guy-ottewell-9780934546744","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
