Have there been developments in astronomy that have led you to teach some topics differently from how you learned them as a student? Then consider The Cosmic Perspective , Second Edition. Astronomical breakthroughs of the last two decades have led to a revolution in the way we understand the universe and to what we can teach our students. This book these discoveries and carefully weaves together connecting themes to produce a cosmic context. It's complemented by a next-generation media package that focuses on improving understanding of key concepts your students have the most problems with - like "Phases of the Moon" and "Stellar Evolution." And, it's backed by a revised and updated version of Carl Sagan's classic TV series Cosmos on video or DVD.
