What astronomy / night sky book are you currently reading?

Question

I'm reading " death by black hole & other cosmic quanderies "

by : Neil Degrasse Tyson

MOST FASCINATING SPACE / ASTRONOMY BOOK I EVER

READ , WOW MR TYSON !

Answer 1

Tyson is good.  Though he didn't do so hot when Steven Colbert interviewed him.  Tyson argued that Pluto should be in it's own category.  Colbert replied with "Separate but equal?"  Cough, cough, gasp.

I'm currently reading Sagan's "Contact".  I've seen the movie.

I've also read his "Pale Blue Dot", and "The Demon Haunted World".

Answer 2

An introduction to the physics of interstellar dust...

I'm supposed to be writing a review of it

Answer 3

I go to ...

www.arxiv.org

... for all of my astronomy/astrophysics literature.

I find that any books I buy are already outdated, and due to the nature of astronomy, such is expected. It's a rapidly evolving field, you can't stay up to date buying books on the subject.
