520 3 |a This book provides an introduction to our current knowledge of stellar magnetic activity. It is intended for graduate or advanced undergraduate students or researchers new to the field. Starting with the Sun, it extends to stars of all masses and ages. Topics include the production and measurement of the fields themselves, their effects on the stellar atmospheres, the diagnostics we use to understand them, and the effects of the magnetic activity on the star and its surrounds over time.  
521 |a Advanced undergraduates/graduate students.

545 |a Gibor Basri earned a BSc in Physics from Stanford University in 1973, and a PhD in Astrophysics from the Univ. of Colorado, Boulder in 1979. His thesis was on ultraviolet observations and semi-empirical models of the chromospheres of the Sun and stars. An award of a Chancellor's Postdoctoral Fellowship then brought him to the Univ. of California, Berkeley. He joined the faculty of the UC Berkeley Astronomy Dept. in 1982.
