Two new books on fusion published

A new book, "Plasma Physics and Fusion Energy" by Jeffrey P. Freidberg from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has just been published by Cambridge University Press. It can be ordered online at their website. The book, which is based on a series of course notes from graduate courses in plasma physics and fusion energy at MIT, covers the potential role of fusion in future energy systems, fusion power production, design of a fusion reactor, and basic plasma physics. Exercises are included.

Secondly, there is the book "Fusion - The Energy of the Universe", written by Garry McCracken and Peter Stott, which has been translated into Korean and which is now available through Books Hill Publishing Co. The ISBN number of the translation is 9812598596. It will soon also be available at the ITER library.
