Description
We review the physics of star formation, and its links with the state of the ISM in galaxies. Current obervations indicate that the preferred mode of star formation is clustered. Given that OB associations provide the dominant energy input into the ISM, deep links exist between the ISM and star formation. We present a multi-scale discussion of star formation, and attempt to create an integrated vision of these processes.
