This book describes in a non-technical language, one of the success
stories of modern (twentieth-century) astronomy. It presents us
with the physical picture of what constitutes a star, with a
description of how a star evolves with time, how its shape and
brightness change, how it manufactures the chemical elements deep
in its interior, what makes it explode. The presentation also
includes exotic objects such as supernovae, pulsars, neutron stars
and white dwarfs, and of course, black holes. The book will be
appropriate as supplementary material for an elementary course on
astronomy and astrophysics.
