How do I know what kind of astronomy book to buy?

Age does Matter

Facts change daily in astronomy. Remember that when choosing a book to read, especially if you're going to buy it. Books older than ten years old may be good for a science history buff, but not for someone who needs to know what is happening in the field right now. If you're looking for up-to-the minute discoveries, a magazine or newspaper might be best. For current research interests, try to stick with books written in the 90s or later.
