ISBN10: 0691011516, ISBN13: 9780691011516, [publisher: Princeton University Press, New Jersey] Softcover Paperback. A comprehensive treatment of active galactic nuclei - the cosmic power-houses at the core of many distant galaxies. The term active galactic nuclei refers to quasars, radio galaxies, Seyfert galaxies, blazars, and related objects, all of which are believed to share a similar central engine - a supermassive black hole many times the mass of the Sun.
