Laser Applications in Medicine and Biology : Volume 3 / edited by M.L. Wolbarsht.
Much of the material in this book represents a departure from that presented earlier in the series. Volumes 1 and 2 presented almost exclusively reviews by American authors of American work. As science is international, it is rare that in two different parts of the world large groups of researchers...
