Good Book
I found this book really clear. I was using it along side a lecture course, and found it cleared up any confusion i had. It is clearly written and an all round good course book. I used it in my 3rd year of my astrophysics degree, i think it is probably a bit too advanced for 1st year, and maybe 2nd year, but definately suitable for 3rd year undergraduates.
