From the reviews:

"The main aim of the present book is to show the usefulness of analytical methods, in a world, which focuses more and more on numerical methods. … The book is written for graduate students and engineers. … At the end of every chapter, problems are shown, which the reader may solve to check his/her knowledge." (Claudia-Veronika Meister, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1073, 2005)
"The intention of the author of this modest little book is to provide a guide for analytic methods for the solution of heat transfer problems. … A list of symbols is provided at the start, some 200 references are cited, and there is a shortish index. … The author intends his book for graduate students and engineers. … It will mainly serve as a reference for those interested in technical heat transfer calculations." (A. C. Fowler, Journal of Fluid Mechanics, Vol. 547, 2006)
"The main aim of this book is to ‘show the usefulness of analytical methods in a world which focuses more and more on numerical methods (in heat transfer and fluid flow)’. The intended readership is researchers from the relevant engineering community and their students. … the mathematician can use the book as an entrée to selected parts of the engineering literature, both theoretical and experimental." (J. R. Ockendon, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2005 h)
"Analytical methods for heat transfer and fluid flow problems is designed to show the usefulness of analytical methods for solving problems … . The book’s target audience is engineers and engineering students, people with a good understanding of basic engineering mathematics. … The book is laid out clearly, making good use of tables and graphs when necessary. All problems are solved in clear steps … . It’s a useful reference for those working in this field … ." (Ragan Nelson, The Chemical Engineer, October, 2006)

From the reviews:

"The wide scope of this book is indicated by the cover photographs, showing Stonehenge and the Hubble Space Telescope. It deals with the astronomical ideas of the Egyptian and Mesopotamian observers, the Greek philosophers and the revolutionary concepts of such figures as Copernicus, Galileo and Newton. … buy Understanding the Heavens, for there is much worthwhile material, presented in a logical and constructive way, in it." (Jeffrey Barham, Popular Astronomy, October – December, 2002)
"This … volume, written by a well-known French astronomer, covers almost three millennia of the evolution of the understanding by curious minds of what, until recently, was called the ‘World’ but that we now call the ‘Universe’. … this is not a book about the history of those ideas but about the concepts lying behind the model universes … . much can be learned from this work … ." (F. Binon, Physicalia, Vol. 38 (2), 2002)
"The task Jean-Claude Pecker has set himself in this book is to recount the development of humankind’s ideas about the cosmos from essentially the earliest recorded history up to the present day. The strongest part of the book deals with the fascinating struggle to make sense of the rather complicated observed motions of the celestial objects, especially planets … . The copious illustrations are useful … . this book … contains much interesting and useful material." (J. G. Robertson, The Physicist, Vol. 38 (5), 2001)
"This would be a useful book for someone who is actively involved in cosmological research today, but has only a vague idea of the history of the subject … . It is based on a series of lectures given by the author in 1989, which go back to pre-Greek ideas about astronomy and up to inflation … . the ideas are explained clearly … . Understanding the Heavens is to be welcomed as a worthy and worthwhile addition to the library shelves … ." (John Gribbin, The Observatory, Vol. 121 (1165), 2001)

Thirty Centuries of Astronomical Ideas from Ancient Thinking to Modern Cosmology

Understanding the Heavens

From the reviews: "This dense text book [...] is a serious review of the physical and chemical structure and evolution of the solar system addressed certainly to students and searchers in astronomy but is also very pleasant to read for a more external reader with some scientific knowledge." (Physicalia 2005, 57, page 215-216)"As a detailed reference to the astronomy and physics of the solar system, I have yet to meet its equal." (R. Feasey, Journal of the Auckland Astronomical Society AAS, May 2005)From the reviews of the third edition:"This is the third edition of the originally published book in French in 1987. The solar system, planets and satellites, asteroids, comets and interplanetary dust is discussed in a very systematic and quantitative way. … This dense text book … is a serious review of the physical and chemical structure and evolution of the solar system addressed certainly to students and searchers in astronomy but is also very pleasant to read for a more external reader with some scientific knowledge." (Laurent Favart, Physicalia, Vol. 57 (3), 2005)"Originally published in 1987, at just over 500 pages, the third edition of this hardcover text has been translated from its native French by Storm Dunlop. … it is not a picture book designed to catch the eye, but a serious review of the physical and chemical structure and evolution of the solar system. As a detailed reference to the astronomy and physics of the solar system, I have yet to meet its equal. … A highly recommended reference book." (Roger Feasey, Journal of the Auckland Astronomical Society, May, 2005)"This book, originally appeared in French in 1987 … . It is a good book for those intending to increase their knowledge on modern planetology. … This volume offers a nice journey inside the solar system and closes with a brief account on the search for life in the Universe. … The volume ends witha series of references for each chapter together with an alphabetic index for a quick item search. The book is accessible to many researchers and postgraduate students." (M. Storini, Bollettino della Società Italiana di Fisica, Vol. 28 (1), 2005)
