520 3 |a The fascinating and observationally spectacular world of binary stars is a vast and beautiful one that is a significant aspect of many astrophysical studies. Modeling and Analysis of Eclipsing Binary Stars gives a comprehensive analysis and description of the science behind eclipsing binaries. It also explores the assumptions and the difficulties that can occur when using the modeling principles of the classical codes as well as introducing PHOEBE (the PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs)--a modern suite for modeling binary stars. PHOEBE was conceived by Andrej Pr�sa and his collaborators, and has become one of the standard tools in the eclipsing binary field.
