From the reviews
"This book is yet another example of the author's oustanding expository skills and deserves to be hailed as a brilliant and up-to-date account of current understanding in the field of cosmology and galaxy formation."
The Observatory, 1999
".Despite its title, the book actually covers pretty much all of extragalactic astronomy and cosmology.offers one of the most comprehensive descriptions of the topic, in particular where observational data are concerned..Longair never fails to place the results within the big picture.Besides completeness, it is also the most up-to-date textbook. Even very recent developments are included,....I very much enjoyed reading this book, and I am sure I will make use of it the next time I teach a cosmology graduate course, as both a textbook for the students and a guide in preparing my lectures."
Physics Today, September 1999

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
