A central point of the book is that, while in the standard picture of galaxy formation a significant amount of the baryonic mass is expected to reside in classical bulges, the question what is the fraction of galaxies with no classical bulges in the local Universe has remained open. The most spectacular example of a galaxy with no significant classical bulge is the Milky Way. The reviews of this book attempt to clarify the role of the various types of bulges during the mass build-up of galaxies, based on morphology, kinematics, and stellar populations, and connecting their properties at low and high redshifts. The observed properties are compared with the predictions of the theoretical models, accounting for the many physical processes leading to the central mass concentration and their destruction in galaxies. This book serves as an entry point for PhD students and non-specialists and as a reference work for researchers in the field. 410 0$aAstrophysics and Space Science Library,$x0067-0057 ;$v418 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aAstrophysics 606 $aAstronomy, Astrophysics and Cosmology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22006 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aAstrophysics. 615 14$aAstronomy, Astrophysics and Cosmology. 676 $a523.113 702 $aLaurikainen$b Eija$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPeletier$b Reynier$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGadotti$b Dimitri$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254620203321 996 $aGalactic Bulges$91807580 997 $aUNINA
