This book provides a comprehensive combined account of the properties of sunspots and starspots. It covers both observations and theory, and describes the intricate fine structure of a sunspot's magnetic field and the prevalence of polar spots on stars. The book includes a substantial historical introduction and treats solar and stellar magnetic activity, dynamo models of magnetic cycles, and the influence of solar variability on the Earth's magnetosphere and climate. This volume is a valuable reference for graduate students and specialists in solar and stellar physics, astronomers, geophysicists, space physicists and experts in fluid dynamics and plasma physics. 410 0$aCambridge astrophysics series ;$v46. 517 3 $aSunspots & Starspots 606 $aSunspots 606 $aStarspots 615 0$aSunspots. 615 0$aStarspots. 676 $a523.7/4 700 $aThomas$b John H.$f1941-$01548652 702 $aWeiss$b N.
