<p>I have felt the need for a book on the theory of solar magnetic fields for some time now. Most books about the Sun are written by observers or by theorists from other branches of solar physics, whereas those on magnetohydrodynamics do not deal extensively with solar applications.

Most of the solar system exists in the plasma state (the fourth state of matter). Its subtle nonlinear interaction with the magnetic field can be described by the equations of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Over the past few years this important and complex field of research has been actively pursued
