This volume is composed of four major in-depth yet pedagogic review
chapters on the subject of star formation, written by the foremost
researchers in the field. Recent infrared and millimeter radio
observations are respectively reviewed by Charlie Lada and Phil
Myers, both of Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. The
theoretical work is reviewed by Frank Shu of UC-Berkeley on the
gravitational collapse of dense cores in a giant molecular cloud to
form sunlike stars and Bruce Elmegreen of IBM-Watson on the
gravitational instability, leading to large-scale star formation.
They have written at a level most suitable for graduate students or
young researchers who want to develop their research interest in
the field, with the most complete literature survey to date. This
volume is not an ordinary conference proceedings, but a textbook to
be used in graduate study in astrophysics. The volume also includes
other short and interesting contributions from Doug Lin of UC-Santa
Cruz, Paul Ho of Harvard-Smithsonian, Masa Hayashi of Tokyo
University, Debra Elmegreen of Vassar, Jing-Yao Hu of Beijing
Observatory, Guo-Xuan Sung of Shanghai Observatory, Chi Yuan of
CCNY and ASIAA, and Wen-Ping Chen of Central University, Taiwan.
