Summary:Takes a comparative-studies approach to the study of the solar system, with 25 contributions organized into six sections: overviews; interactions between planetary and small body atmospheres with the surrounding plasma medium; chemistry, energetics, and dynamics; models of aeronomic systems; observational applications; and atmospheres of other worlds. Suitable as an overview for graduate students and new professionals in aeronomy, as well as providing synthesis for veterans in the field, with excellent references to guide further research. Mostly b&w illustrations, with a few color plates. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
