Anotace:	This book describes the equipment, observational techniques, and analysis used in the investigation of stellar photospheres. The opening chapters describe the basic tools, such as spectrographs and light detectors, as well as the physics of radiative transfer and the construction of models. Next the author introduces the measurement and modeling of the continuum spectrum. This is followed by the study of spectral line radiation. The final chapters explain how these techniques enable astronomers to deduce valuable information on basic properties of stars. For example, temperature, radius, surface gravity, chemical composition, rotation rate, and velocity fields can be derived from stellar spectroscopy. This textbook is written clearly and at a level suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students and researchers working on the properties of stars. The book is filled with real examples of stellar observations and analysis. There are valuable data and calibrations that are useful in real research, as well as extensive references to the primary literature.
