The gas and dust between the stars emit across the electromagnetic
spectrum and are found in a range of physical conditions from
diffuse plasmas to cold, dense molecules. Through their study we
see how quantum processes shape the structure of our Galaxy and
fluid mechanics sets the stellar mass scale. The Interstellar
Medium is a very broad subject with layers of complexity, a long
history and a steady flow of new results. This comprehensive yet
accessible textbook provides a self-contained one-semester course
for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students. It is
written in a style that students can follow by themselves and
allows instructors to use class time to go deeper into the details
or show applications to current research. It makes extensive use of
publicly accessible data to illustrate specific points and to
encourage students to learn by performing their own analyses.
