The past two decades have seen remarkable advances in observations
of sunspots and their magnetic fields, in imaging of spots and
fields in distant stars and in associated theoretical models and
numerical simulations. This book provides a comprehensive combined
account of the properties of sunspots and starspots. It covers both
observations and theory, and describes the intricate fine structure
of a sunspot's magnetic field and the prevalence of polar spots on
stars. The book includes a substantial historical introduction and
treats solar and stellar magnetic activity, dynamo models of
magnetic cycles, and the influence of solar variability on the
Earth's magnetosphere and climate. This volume is a valuable
reference for graduate students and specialists in solar and
stellar physics, astronomers, geophysicists, space physicists and
experts in fluid dynamics and plasma physics.
