Review
'The production standards of the book are extremely high. This enhances the pleasure in reading the book ... Anyone who has an interest in elemental or molecular abundance measurements anywhere in the Universe should have this volume on their bookshelf. I suspect that the shelf-life of this book will be significantly longer than that of most other conference proceedings.' The Observatory
Book Description
This comprehensive volume reviews our current knowledge of the origin and evolution of elements, from stellar nucleosynthesis to the chemical evolution of the cosmos. Chapters by leading authorities in the field describe models of how the elements are produced by stars, inbdicating the nuclear processes involved, and how the quantity of elements evolved in our Galaxy and distant galaxies. The authoritative volume is a valuable resource for graduate students and research astronomers.
