……等等）现在都已经过时了。不过，它依然非常值得买。如果你想更严肃地入门天文学，并且懂一点基础物理和微积分，那最好的选择莫过于去读 Carroll 和 Ostlie 写的《现代天体物理学导论》（Introduction to Modern Astrophysics，被大家亲切地称为 BOB——Big Orange Book，大橙书）。它有大概 1500 页，天文学里的一切它全覆盖了。内容清晰详尽，很可能会解答你……
…etc.) are now out of date. Nevertheless, it's well worth buying. If you would like a more serious introduction to astronomy and know some basic physics and calculus, you can do no better than to read Introduction to Modern Astrophysics by Carroll & Ostlie (affectionately known as BOB -- the Big Orange Book). It's about 1500 pages long and covers absolutely everything in astronomy. It's clear, comprehensive, and will likely tell you…
Carroll 和 Ostlie 写的《现代天体物理学导论》（An Introduction to Modern Astrophysics）堪称圣经，但无论是体积还是涵盖范围都相当庞大，对大多数人来说更适合当作参考书。至于各个细分主题，我会推荐看：Ryden 的《宇宙学导论》（Introduction to Cosmology）……
An Introduction to Modern Astrophysics by Carroll & Ostlie is the Bible, but it is quite large physically and in scope and better serves as a reference for most people. For various topics, I would look at: Introduction to Cosmology by Ryden…
…read much about astronomy or cosmology compared to topics nearer to Earth and found this to be the most interesting thing I've seen on wikipedia in years. I'm picking up a copy of Carroll and Ostlie's Introduction to Modern Astrophysics. Are there any other niche topics in astronomy that I may find deeply interesting?
…exposes a dense, glowing carbon/oxygen/neon core surrounded by a fraction of the original atmosphere (exact composition varies), which we call a white dwarf. Further reading: Ch. 13, Carroll & Ostlie, Introduction to Modern Astrophysics

我推荐布拉德利·W·卡罗尔（Bradley W Carroll）和戴尔·A·奥斯特利（Dale A Ostlie）写的《现代天体物理学导论》（An Introduction to Modern Astrophysics）。
I would suggest “An Introduction to Modern Astrophysics” by Bradley W Carroll and Dale A Ostlie.
……相比离地球更近的话题，我平时没怎么读过天文学或宇宙学的书，但发现这是我这些年在维基百科上看到的最有意思的内容。我正准备买一本 Carroll 和 Ostlie 的《现代天体物理学导论》。天文学里还有什么其他非常硬核有趣的小众话题吗？

我推荐 Carroll 和 Ostlie 写的《现代天体物理学导论》（Introduction to Modern Astrophysics），不过读它需要一点微积分和物理基础。
I'd recommend Carroll & Ostlie's Introduction to Modern Astrophysics, though it requires some basic calculus and physics.
