There is no copy left on stock, they say. Please, do you know another hopeful source which might provide 1 new hardcover? ================= As Hewitt has pointed out, it's still up in the Celestaire list at $24.95 + shipping, even though it might have sold out elsewhere. Try http://celestaire.com/cgi-bin/catalog/search.cgi?query=meeus&submit.x=10&submit.y=11 Buy a copy. Don't hesitate. It's an absolute mine of useful information to anyone interested in astronomy, and clearly expressed. There's nothing like it. I wonder why it's been allowed by Willmann-Bell to go out of print. Could it be that there's a new edition on the stocks? The previous one dates from 1998, I think, so no doubt there's some updating could be done.
