Description: Sundials: Their Theory And Construction. By Albert E. Waugh. Dover Publications, New York, 1973. Softcover. xii, 228 pages. Illustrated with numerous figures and b/w photos. Measures 8 1/2" x 5 1/4". Most books on the subject are either rare out-of-print works published centuries ago and available only in highly specialized collections, or highly complicated treatises whose information is hidden behind frightening arrays of involved formulas. But now your search is over. This book is designed to meet sundialing needs at either the simple or the sophisticated level. Albert E. Waugh, professor and administrator at the University of Connecticut for 40 years, and an expert on the subject of sundials and their curious history, presents, on the one hand, a rigorous appraisal of the science of sundials, including mathematical treatment and an explanation of the pertinent astronomical background; on the other hand, he presents simple and non-technical treatments.
