This undergraduate textbook presents an extensive introduction to the astrophysical processes that enable radio astronomy. It discusses the physical phenomena that give rise to radio emissions, presenting examples of astronomical objects, and illustrating how the physical parameters of astronomical sources can be obtained from radio observations.
