This book goes beyond a phenomenological study to present a detailed quantitative treatment of the dynamic interactions between stars and interstellar matter. Emphasizing a practical understanding of these processes, the text is interlaced with mathematical derivations that are understandable by anyone with an undergraduate background in Physics.
