Authors:
- In the book, brief historical remarks demonstrate that the outstanding discoveries in cosmic physics were by no means governed by chance
- Distinguishing feature of the proposed book is the consecutive consideration of physical principles, starting from the most general ones (the first principles), and of the simplifying assumptions which give us more simpler descriptions of plasma under cosmic conditions
