Review

'This authoritative volume provides a lucid introduction to stellar rotation and the definitive reference to the subject.' Europe & Astronomy

'It is a welcome addition to the literature, and should certainly be found in the library of every astrophysics department.' Leon Mestel, Geophys. Astrophys. Fluid Dynamics

'This authoritative volume provides a lucid introduction to stellar rotation and the definitive reference to the subject. This book will be of primary interest to graduate students and researchers studying solar and stellar rotation and close binary systems. It will also appeal to those with a more general interest in solar and stellar physics, star formation, binary stars, and the hydrodynamics of rotating fluids - including geophysicists, planetary scientists, and plasma physicists.' Zentralblatt für Mathematik und ihre Grenzgebiete Mathematics Abstracts
