'Krumholz has a strong writing style, didactic to be sure, but also
fairly conversational within the limits of the material. While
hardly casual reading, this text would be a good resource for a
stellar astrophysicist, or any individual seeking to become
one.'CHOICEThis book provides a modern introduction to the study of
star formation, at a level suitable for graduate students or
advanced undergraduates in astrophysics. The first third of the
book provides a review of the observational phenomenology and then
the basic physical processes that are important for star formation.
The remainder then discusses the major observational results and
theoretical models for star formation on scales from galactic down
to planetary. The book includes recommendations for complementary
reading from the research literature, as well as five problem sets
with solutions.
