Since several decades, comets have been considered as key witnesses
of solar system formation. Their nature has been explored using the
modern arsenal of Earth- and space-based observations, and they
hold a central place as dynamical arbiters of the planetary system
in the new paradigm of solar system evolution known as the Nice
Model. Thus, they have the potential to test the various ideas,
using the detailed data recently gathered by the ESA/Rosetta
mission. This requires an understanding of their origin and
evolution, which form the subject of the present book. All the
relevant issues are covered, describing both the background and the
current frontiers of research.
