CHIRAL DYNAMICS
Theory and Experiment III
Jefferson Laboratory, USA 17 - 22 July 2000

edited by Aron M Bernstein (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA), José L Goity (Hampton University, USA) & Ulf-G Meißner (Forschungszentrum Jüelich, Germany)

This book provides an authoritative, up to date, overview of the field of chiral dynamics, and also provides an excellent introduction to the field. The workshop is known for the interplay of theory and experiment and as a meeting place for most of the leading researchers in the field.
