Default Astronomy Books to download
Hi,

I just want to know if anyone knows any certain website that I can download astronomy books or science journals (for free if possible). Mostly on cosmology, astrophysics or anything on astronomy.

Thx

Thank you for sharing this, Ari. This is like discovering a gold mine. I see some works from my home state by UofM and this is the best translation of Ptolemy's works I've seen. Very easy to understand.
