Using fundamental physics, the theory of stellar structure and evolution can predict how stars are born, how their complex internal structure changes, what nuclear fuel they burn, and their ultimate fate. This textbook is a stimulating introduction for undergraduates in astronom…

This textbook introduces the reader to the basic concepts and equations that describe stellar structure. Various approximation techniques are used to solve equations, and an intuitive rather than rigorous approach is employed to interpret the properties of the stars. The book pr…
Some properties of stars -- The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram -- Stellar equations of state -- Hydrostatic and thermal equilibrium -- Thermonuclear reactions in stars -- Stellar burning processes -- Energy transport in stars -- Summary of stellar equations -- The formation of star…
