About this title

Synopsis

The past decade has witnessed a surge of new developments in classical wave research, stemming mainly from breakthroughs in understanding the physics of wave multiple scattering and the phenomenon of localization in disordered materials. This volume collects tutorial expositions and up-to-date reviews of the recent research results by leading workers in the field. Acidic paper. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Review

"... this volume is a valuable contribution to the literature dealing with localization phenomena. It is an excellent reference for researchers already working in this field, and an excellent introduction to it for those wishing to enter it." Waves in Random Media,1992 "Each of the contributions is of high quality. The editor deserves compliments on his choice of authors and his diligence in guiding the organization and writing of the chapters. The book is an appropriate addition to the personal library of anyone working in a field involving propagation of light or acoustic waves through randomly structured condensed matter..." Journal of Statistical Physics, 1993
