Astro Navigation Demystified. The ultimate book of the series; it is a complete course in astro / celestial navigation. This unique self-teach course comprehensively covers all relevant elements of the examination syllabuses of the main sailing associations. However, if you are looking for something to enable you to rote-learn only what you need to pass an exam without real understanding, then sorry, this is not the book for you; if, on the other hand, you want a book that will not only help you to pass exams but also teach you to navigate and to understand what you are doing, then you have come to the right place. Part one ranges from simple explanations of the basic principles through to detailed expositions of the important aspects of the subject. Part two provides a comprehensive coverage of the use of rapid sight reduction techniques for position fixing. Although it is a large book (containing 324, letter size pages) it is thoroughly cross-referenced and the language style used allows the text to flow smoothly from beginning to end so that it makes enjoyable reading. It is emphasised that this book teaches the rapid reduction method of astro navigation. If you wish to learn how to use the traditional method which involves the application of spherical trigonometry, then you may prefer 'Celestial Navigation - The Ultimate Course' which forms part of the series. Other books in the Astro Navigation Demystified Series: Applying Mathematics to Astro Navigation. This addition to the 'Astro Navigation Demystified' series focuses on the mathematical principles upon which astro navigation is based and it will appeal to anyone with an interest in these subjects whether they be navigators or mathematicians. Section two of the book, which is very popular with teachers and college lecturers, contains activities that are designed to provide opportunities to consolidate the knowledge acquired and provide ideal starting points for 'open-ended' projects. Celestial Navigation. The Ultimate Course The prime aim of this book is to teach the practical skills of celestial navigation and has been uniquely designed to teach the important skills from the outset while 'tying-in' the relevant theory as progress is made. There are numerous examples and self-test exercises which enhance the learning process and help to embed the knowledge and skills needed to practise the art of celestial navigation. The traditional method of celestial navigation involving the use of spherical trigonometry to calculate a vessel's position is comprehensively taught in this book. Note. The terms celestial navigation and astro navigation are generally regarded as synonymous. Astronomy For Astro Navigation. This book focuses on those aspects of astronomy that are essential for a complete understanding of astro navigation - a must for sailors, navigators, nautical colleges and navigation tutors. Teachers and students of many other subjects including geography and mathematics will also find this book interesting, entertaining and very informative. The only book of its kind - no other book focuses on only those aspects of astronomy that are relevant to astro navigation. An ideal introduction to both astronomy and astro navigation containing 178 letter size pages packed with illustrations, detailed diagrams and clear explanations. “Know the stars and you will always have a compass” (The Revenant) The Astro Navigation Demystified website provides a free resource for all those interested in the subject of astro navigation (or celestial navigation as it is also known): www.astronavigationdemystified.com, Paperback, Label: Jack Case, Jack Case, Product group: Book, Published: 2011-11-09, Studio: Jack Case, Sales rank: 903403.
