This text introduces magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) from a fluid dynamics perspective at a level accessible to advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. Problem sets extend key concepts with fully-worked solutions available to instructors. Lesson plans are also available, including large-font lessons designed for 'flipped-style' classes.

David Clarke, a recently retired professor at Saint Mary's University, has taught undergraduate physics courses for thirty years. As co-developer of the original ZEUS MHD code and primary developer of ZEUS-3D (which he uses for his research in astrophysical jets), he's made ZEUS-3D available open-source to hundreds of investigators worldwide.
