The audience is the same as for the series Astrobiology: Exploring Life on Earth and Beyond, including investigators in any area of exoplanets or astrobiology, who will find this book to be both a comprehensive introduction to and a modern review of the coupled field of exoplanet astrobiology. Exoplanet enthusiasts, without the astrobiology component, will also be attracted to this book because it will include expert exoplanet reviews.Cuprins
