In addition to articles surveying Islamic, Chinese, NativeAmerican, Aboriginal Australian, Polynesian, Egyptian and Tibetanastronomy, among others, the book includes essays on Sky Tales and WhyWe Tell Them and Astronomy and Prehistory, and Astronomy andAstrology. The essays address the connections between science andculture and relate astronomical practices to the cultures whichproduced them.
