        Optical Astronomy and the Hubble Telescope

        by Joseph A. Angelo, Jr.

        This eBook describes the rise of telescopic astronomy in Western Europe, the early 17th century, and the emergence of the Scientific Revolution. Readers will explore the work of American astronomer Edwin Powell Hubble who showed that the universe was not static, but rather expanding. As demonstrated by the special collection of NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope images presented in Optical Astronomy, Hubble’s over 1.4 million images have transformed how scientists observe the universe and some of its most mysterious phenomena. This eBook is a must-read for any student interested in how astronomers use telescopes to study planets, stars, galaxies, and the structure of the universe.

        The reign of Richard II

        From minority to tyranny 1377–97

        by Alison McHardy

        The long-awaited prequel to Chronicles of the revolution covers the first twenty years (1377-97) of Richard II's reign. This richly-documented period offers exceptional opportunities and challenges to students, and the editor has selected material from a wide range of sources: well-known English chronicles, foreign chronicles and legal, administrative and financial records. These are arranged chronologically to form a coherent narrative of the reign. Clear and lively commentary and notes enable readers to make the fullest use of each document. The introduction describes the complex domestic and international situation which confronted the young king and offers guidance on the strengths and weaknesses of the reign's leading chronicles. The dramatic and diverse politics of the reign of Richard II make this the ideal special subject and an accessible, affordable, student-friendly documentary history of Richard II's reign has long been needed. This book is designed to fill that gap.

        Defectors and the Liberal Party 1910–2010

        A study of inter-party relationships

        by Alun Wyburn-Powell

        This book is the first analysis of political defections over a long time span. It investigates all the Liberal/Liberal Democrat MPs and former MPs who defected from the party between the elections of December 1910 and May 2010 - around one sixth of all those elected - as well as the smaller number of inward defectors. Each of the 122 defections was an expert judgment on the state of the party at a specific date. The research investigates the timing and reasons for all the defections and reveals long-term trends and underlying causes and apportions responsibility between leaders for them. The author finds some significant differences which distinguished defectors from loyalists and draws wider conclusions about the underlying factors which lead MPs to defect. This book will be of interest to students and lecturers of British politics and anyone interested in the relationship between British political parties in the last century. ;
