This unusual book considers physical principles, starting from the most general ones, and simplifies assumptions, helping students answer two key questions: what approximation is the simplest, but still sufficient for the description of a phenomenon in cosmic plasmas, and how to build an adequate model.

Starting from the language of plasma physics, from Maxwell's equations, this work guides the reader into the more specialized concepts of cosmic electrodynamics. It can also be useful for professional astronomers and for specialists, who investigate cosmic plasmas from space, as well as for those who are interested in modern astrophysics.
