This book presents the latest understanding of the structure, evolution, and dynamics of the Magellanic Clouds, based on observations in the X-ray, FUV, infrared, and millimeter wavelengths, including results from the Hubble Space Telescope. The general topics addressed include: the distances of the Clouds, the Clouds as galaxies, the cluster population, the youngest field population, the superassociations and supergiant shells, the intermediate-age and oldest field populations, the interstellar medium, X-ray emission and supernova remnants, the 30 Doradus complex, chemical abundances, and the structure and kinematics of the Magellanic system.
