FYI,
this is a re-release of the first Binocular Astronomy. What specific edits or updated information it will contain I cannot say. (Stephen Tokin's book released Nov 2006 by Springer Verlag, London, is also called Binocular Astronomy, adding to some confusion).
The edits for the second edition were completed several years ago. Craig states; "Its text has been updated (badly needed: I wrote much of the book in the mid-1980s) and expanded (more objects; and more on constellation history); there are more photos by Robert Reeves; and Wil has made more charts for it....The observing I did for those two books (Binocular Astronomy and Sky Vistas) are among the most pleasant experiences of my life, and it's nice to know that my books are giving readers the same pleasure in discovery that I felt.
Yours gratefully,
Craig Crossen"
However, I'm a bit confused over this release. I've been having discussions for about a year now with Craig Crossen, the author of the original Binocular Astronomy by Crossen and Tirion. Based on some of those discussions, I'm not sure this release by Wilmann Bell is the authorized release of the second edition edits of this book. Unless there are some developments that I am not aware of, (and that may very well be the case, our last correspondence was some time ago), I would think this would not be the authorized version.
I've emailed Craig to see if I can clear up any confusion.

What binocular models will be recommended in the text?
AFAIK, Craig doesn't make binocular model recommendations. He may however include some binocular size recommendations.
