This multidisciplinary volume presents an authoritative overview of the latest in our understanding of the processes of planet formation. From meteorite observations to orbital dynamics, Planetesimals is the essential reference for those interested in planetary formation, solar system dynamics, exoplanets and planetary habitability.
