Abstract
[To introduce our subject, we provide an overview of the interstellar medium (ISM) in our Galaxy and its relation to the stellar component. We then discuss the phase structure of the ISM, with a special emphasis on why the hydrogen takes the different forms it does. We then outline the observational signatures of the Hot Ionized, Warm Ionized, Warm Neutral, and Cold Neutral media, followed by a brief introduction to the molecular component of the Galaxy. A description of Photo-Dissociation Regions is presented with emphasis on the transition region from atomic to diffuse molecular gas. The role of dust and cosmic rays is also briefly described. Finally, we discuss the concept of a molecular cloud, a central theme of this book.]
