Summary
"The techniques of high pressure research and its applications to different fields of physics are discussed in this volume. High pressure is a versatile tool for a wide variety of investigations of phenomena which depend upon variations of the inter-atomic spacing in matter. An understanding of it is especially important since it is the only available means for varying this spacing to an appreciable extent. Advanced mathematical techniques are not used."--Back cover.
