The study of cosmic dust is a highly active and topical area of current research. This book provides an overview of the subject, covering general concepts, methods of investigation, important results and their significance, relevant literature, and some suggestions for promising avenues of future research. It is aimed at a level suitable for those embarking upon postgraduate research, but will also be of more general interest to researchers, teachers and students as a review of a significant area of astrophysics. As a formal text for taught courses, it will be particularly useful to advanced undergraduate and beginning postgraduate students studying the interstellar medium.
