Table of ContentsReviewsAn Introduction to High-Pressure Science and Technology by Recio et al. covers all aspects of high-pressure science, from theory to experiment to applications in a wide range of fields, including physics, chemistry, Earth science, and biology. The organization of the book in three parts (theory, experiments, and applications) is particularly well suited to cover such a vast area of science and technology. Each chapter is written by a recognized authority in each subtopic of high-pressure science and presents an up-to-date state of the art in each area. This book is highly recommended as an introduction for MSc and PhD students starting in the field of high-pressure science and as a reference for all those working with high pressure. It is also an ideal textbook for graduate courses and summer schools. -Dr. Julien Haines, Research Director, CNRS, Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier ... an incredibly rich guide for postgraduate students and scientists of any age and experience approaching the high-pressure world. The book is a perfect mix of theory and experimental practice, providing a well-referenced and up-to-date overview of most of the different facets characterizing high-pressure science. -Roberto Bini, Professor of Chemical-Physics, University of Florence This would be an extremely useful book for PhD students starting their work in high-pressure science as well as for more experienced scientists willing to initiate themselves into this area. Both experimental and theoretical approaches are covered with a good balance and a number of important examples allow readers to get a good feeling for current research. -Professor Alfonso San Miguel, University of Lyon An Introduction to High-Pressure Science and Technology by Recio et al. covers all aspects of high-pressure science, from theory to experiment to applications in a wide range of fields, including physics, chemistry, Earth science, and biology.

It is also an ideal textbook for graduate courses and summer schools. -Dr. Julien Haines, Research Director, CNRS, Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier This text is written by 39 scientists who are internationally renowned experts on the topics they cover in this book. Many examples and results emanate directly from their own research interests and are ideally suited to explaining basic concepts and methods in high-pressure research. I highly recommend this book to those who want to become familiar with this topic, in particular postgraduate students. -From the Foreword by Stefan Klotz, Chairman, European High Pressure Research Group (EHPRG), Universite Pierre et Marie Curie Author InformationJ.
