About the Book

This book isn't intended for the astronomical data-miner or the budding astrophysicist so if you buy it expecting to find a detailed analysis of data management techniques or the latest theories on double star formation you will be greatly disappointed. But if you are an amateur astronomer interested in observing double stars this book will fill your heart with joy. If you are tired of seeing the same old lists of double stars with the same, decades old, descriptions then you will love this book because none of these 1800+ double stars have ever been catalogued before! The first few pages contain an introduction the catalogue - the why and the how behind its creation. The heart of the book is a detailed list of these new targets organised by constellation and then by right ascension within the constellation. Detailed information on coordinates, magnitudes, separation, position angle and colour is given for every pair. This book represents a major step forward in popularising double star astronomy.
About the Author: Martin Nicholson (born 1954) was educated at St Albans School in Hertfordshire and then at Nottingham University. After a brief spell working in the food industry Martin became a college lecturer initially based in Somerset and later in Northamptonshire before retiring from the post as Director of Information Technology at Guilsborough School in 2005. Although he had a successful career as a teacher he is probably best known for the 25 years+ he served as a school governor and for the extensive work he carried out in the fields of amateur astronomy and in the twin disciplines of stamp collecting and postal history. Martin was one of the first amateur astronomers to see the potential of remote access astronomy and it is testimony to his determination that what was initially regarded with great scepticism by the astronomical establishment has now become standard practice for most serious enthusiasts. He is the discoverer of over 1,000 previously unknown double stars and variable stars that now appear in the standard catalogues.
