The contributions in this volume discuss the magnetic
structures in the outer atmospheres of active late-type
stars, and in particular the various methods available for
imaging surface features on these objects. Emphasis has been
laid upon multiwavelength studies of the phenomena and the
application of solar astrophysics to stellar objects.
The book is recommended to research workers or postgraduate
students in stellar astrophysics.
