This volume contains detailed lecture notes on topics covering nuclear dynamics at high temperatures, nuclear equation of the state and its manifestations in heavy ion colliosions, relativistic mean field aspects in normal and exotic nuclei, mesons and their coupling to baryons, quark structure of hadrons, nucleon-nucleon interactions and experimental techniques including a course on accelerator physics. Written by distinguished experts, these lecture notes are organized with emphasis on details of technique and methodology This book will be quite useful to beginners as well as practitioners in the field of both experimental and theoretical intermediate energy nuclear physics.
