Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sun
Chapter II has been devoted to a description of the methods and principles employed in modern solar research, and Chapters VII to X on the relations of the sun to life upon the earth, and to the starry universe in general. Thus the book, while primarily devoted to the sun, may, I hope, serve as an introduction to the study of astrophysics for school and college use, as well as for the general reader.
