Case Studies in Star Formation offers an overview of our current
observational and theoretical understanding in the molecular
astronomy of star formation. The book is divided into six sections:
the first introduces an overview of star formation and the
essential language, concepts and tools specific to molecular
astronomy studies. Each subsequent section focuses on individual
sources, beginning with a description of large-scale surveys. The
volume covers low- and high mass star formation, ionization and
photodissociation regions, and concludes with the extragalactic
perspective. Conventional textbooks begin with principles, ending
with a few convenient examples. Through copious examples, Case
Studies reflects the reality of research, which requires the
creative matching of ongoing observations to theory and vice-versa,
often raising as many questions as answers. This supplementary
study guide enables graduate students and early researchers to
bridge the gap between textbooks and the wealth of research
literature.
