Review

"...a comprehensive and modern view of dust, using an approach that is firmly based in the astronomical observations...For anyone with the slightest need to know about dust, this new book is essential. Buy it, read it and keep it by you!" -- Contemporary Physics

"An excellent textbook." -- New Scientist

"Eminently suitable for either postgraduate or advanced undergraduate courses and for reference by researchers who appreciate the importance of dust grains in astrophysical phenomena." -- Space Science Reviews

"This book clearly describes the relevant observations and theories. I recommend it to workers in a variety of fields involving the interactions of solids and gases under conditions that are not encountered in our laboratories. The author is not at all shy about pointing out gaps in our knowledge and weaknesses in our interpretation, and the reader learns much in the process." -- Science

"Whittet's book is eminently suitable for those with serious intentions of learning about these matters and going on to do research at the professional level." -- Nature
