A comprehensive, up-to-date description of the properties and mechanisms of classical novae--and the first such effort in the subject since Payne-Gaposchkin's influential (but out of date) The Galactic Novae . Contributors present a balanced mix of observation and theory, and discuss information gathered at optical, radio, infrared, ultraviolet, and x-ray wavelengths. Discussion begins with an overview of the general properties of novae, then covers the accretion process in nova systems and the physics of the nova outburst. Classical novae are then placed in the broader family of cataclysmic variables. Final chapter is devoted to data on novae, including an atlas.
