The book discusses the theoretical path to decoding the information
gathered from observations of old stellar systems. It focuses on
old stellar systems because these are the fossil record of galaxy
formation and provide invaluable information ont he evolution of
cosmic structures and the universe as a whole. The aim is to
present results obtained in the past few years for theoretical
developments in low mass star research and in advances in our
knowledge of the evolution of old stellar systems. A particularly
representative case is the recent discovery of multiple stellar
populations in galactic globular clusters that represents one of
the hottest topics in stellar and galactic astrophysics and is
discussed in detail.Santi Cassisi has authored about 270 scientific
papers, 150 of them in peer-reviewed journals, and the title
"Evolution of Stars and Stellar Populations."
