过去几年，低质量恒星、褐矮星和太阳系外行星的研究取得了相当大的进展，特别是自 2000 年出版本书第一版以来。在这一新版本中，作者对单个红矮星和褐矮星的天体物理性质以及它们作为重要的银河恒星群的集体统计特性进行了全面的回顾。涉及低质量矮星的观测特性、恒星质量函数和太阳系外行星的章节已被完全修改。其他章节已酌情进行了重大修订和更新，包括有关观测技术、恒星活动、银河晕和实地恒星调查的重要新材料。作者详细介绍了自本书第一版出版以来对新褐矮星和太阳系外行星的许多发现，并对我们目前对极低质量恒星、褐矮星和太阳系外行星的了解进行了最先进的回顾，包括最新的观测结果和理论工作。
There has been very considerable progress in research into low-mass stars, brown dwarfs and extrasolar planets during the past few years, particularly since the fist edtion of this book was published in 2000. In this new edtion the authors present a comprehensive review of both the astrophysical nature of individual red dwarf and brown dwarf stars and their collective statistical properties as an important Galactic stellar population. Chapters dealing with the observational properies of low-mass dwarfs, the stellar mass function and extrasolar planets have been completely revised. Other chapters have been significantly revised and updated as appropriate, including important new material on observational techniques, stellar acivity, the Galactic halo and field star surveys. The authors detail the many discoveries of new brown dwarfs and extrasolar planets made since publication of the first edition of the book and provide a state-of-the-art review of our current knowledge of very low-mass stars, brown dwarfs and extrasolar planets, including both the latest observational results and theoretical work.
