Filling a gap for a research-level text aimed mainly at academic users working with and developing the latest methods, this handbook comprises six topical volumes of approximately 500 pages each, providing a comprehensive overview of the subject.
The individual chapters are labeled as either introductory or advanced, in order to guide readers in finding the content at the appropriate level, and structured so as to help the reader make connections to related topics in the same volume.
Highlighting aspects that will drive research in the field in the future, this is a must-have reference for researchers, as well as serving as a valuable resource for graduate and post-graduate students.
