Description
Excerpt from The Great Star Map, Being of Brief General Account of the International Project Known as the Astrographic Chart
The main portion of this little book appeared as a series of four articles in Science Progress, July 1910 to April 1911: and I am indebted to the Editors and Publisher of that Review for permission to reprint. I must further express my grateful acknowledgments to Mr. A. S. Eddington, Chief Assistant at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, for his very careful reading of the proof-sheets. An important criticism of his on one point of the argument is considered in Note XII, p. 155.
