Klappentext zu „Astrophysics of the Interstellar Medium “
The space between the stars contains a large diversity of objects in which physical processes occur that are fundamental to the structure and evolution of galaxies. This book offers the reader a basic knowledge of these processes and presents simple numeric estimates of the main quantities relevant to the interstellar medium. The main objects that constitute the interstellar space are described, but the emphasis of the book lies in the physical processes occurring in these objects, which may also occur in other astrophysical environments. The book is directed tor graduate as well as advanced undergraduate students of physics and astrophysics.

Rezension zu „Astrophysics of the Interstellar Medium “
From the book reviews:"The subject of this book is an important one for new generations of astronomers. ... The book would be an excellent foundation for a postgraduate course, and it is clear that students who completed it successfully and are inspired by the subject would be well-equipped for research. ... Professor Maciel's book is a fine addition to the astronomical literature and should be found along with those volumes on the shelves of all astronomical libraries." -- David A. Williams, The Observatory, Vol. 134 (1240), June, 2014
