Editorial Reviews

"[This book] fills a gap in the literature as few monographs deal with multicompent plasma. … The text is well written and understandable. … The tables, formulae and diagrams are detailed … which makes them easy to see and understand. … [This book] is recommended for universities. … [A] valuable addition to a research collection."
