THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE: An Introduction to Astronomy by Frank Shu is a classic text that despite its age, still offers up concise and exact explanations of concepts in physics from basic thermodynamics and quantum up to solar and galactic physics and on to cosmology. The philosophical ruminations on life not only add to this book’s depth, but also to its basic sense of humanity.

“Just the thing for a first year university science course.” –Nature
“This is a beautiful book in both concept and execution.” –Sky & Telescope
“This is a truly astonishing book, invaluable for anyone with an interest in astronomy and surely the bargain of the year.” –Physics Bulletin
