TitleCan stars find peace?
Author(s)G. Srinivasan
PublicationHyderabad, Universities Press, 2011.
Descriptionxiii, 254p.
Abstract NoteWhat will happen to a star when its supply of nuclear energy is exhausted? Will it collapse to a point and disappear from this Universe? Or, is there a new twist to the story? In this book, the second volume of the series ‘The Present Revolution in Astronomy’ authored by G Srinivasan, the story of the life history of the stars is narrated in a lucid manner, with the necessary physics background developed in a systematic fashion. The first part deals with the great developments of the 1930s. This includes the great discovery by Chandrasekhar and the subsequent prediction of supernovae, neutron stars and black holes. The second part of the book is devoted to a discussion of the modern perspective of stellar evolution. I know of no other book on the evolution of stars of a similar scope and breadth that is so accessible for undergraduate students.

TitleWhat are the stars?
Author(s)G. Srinivasan
PublicationHyderabad, Universities Press, 2011.
Descriptionxiii, 246p.
Series(The Present Revolution in Astronomy)
Abstract NoteThis is the first volume in the series ‘The Present Revolution in Astronomy’ authored by G Srinivasan. The outstanding question in astronomy at the turn of the twentieth century was: what are the stars and why are they as they are? In this volume, the story of how the answer to this fundamental question was unravelled is narrated in an informal style, with emphasis on the underlying physics. It also gives an overview of the topics that will be covered in later volumes white dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, galaxies, and the universe at large. I know of no comparable book in the present-day literature that so successfully conveys the excitement of the development of ideas pertaining to the physics of stars, including the newest discoveries, and at the same time explains the fundamentals so well.
