Stellar evolution - the birth, development and death of stars - is central
to our current understanding of astronomy, but surprisingly the majority
of amateur astronomers lack a full understanding of the physics of stars.
Mike Inglis brings the subject to life in a unique way, combining a
step-by-step introduction with suggestions for practical observations of
stars at different stages in their evolution. Regardless of their current
level of knowledge, amateur astronomers will find this book fascinating
and informative.
