Hardcover, XXX + 389 pages, NOT ex-library. Gently used copy, internally clean and bright, with unmarked text, free of creasing. One minor stray pen mark to the reverse of title page; a couple of fingermarks. Light handling wear to outer page edges and boards. Issued without a dust jacket. -- A collection of 58 papers reporting on recent advances in contractile systems research.
