This book explores the universal spontaneous generation of magnetic fields in astronomical bodies and the agitation of the bodies by those fields. Properties of magnetic fields, their appearance in the universe, and the havoc they wreak are described in simple physical terms to define the broad scientific problem presented by magnetic fields.
