Neutron stars are the smallest dense stars known, with densities some 1014 times that of Earth. This text discusses the physics of these extreme objects and includes the needed background in classical general relativity in nuclear and particle physics.

General relativity; compact stars - from dwarfs to black holes; relativistic nuclear field theory; neutron stars; structure and stability of rotating neutron stars; limiting rotational period of neutron stars; quark matter; quark stars; hybrid stars - quark cores and neutron star mantles; strange quark stars; self-bound stars.
