Reviews

`This comprehensive review of red giant stars with excesses of heavy metals succeeds in conveying not only the wealth of observational data now available on the characteristics of cool stars but also the extraordinary progress of the last 65 years in understanding the complex process of stellar evolution. The book serves as an important milestone on the way to a more complete understanding of the evolution of stars.'
