Sumario:Despite the plethora of monographs published in recent years, few cover recent progress in magnetospheric physics in broad areas of research. While a topical focus is important to in-depth looks at a problem, a broad overview of our field is also needed. The volume answers to the latter need. With its collection of articles written by leading scientists, the articles contained in the book describe latest research results in solar wind-magnetosphere interaction, magnetospheric substorms, magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, transport phenomena in the plasma sheet, wave and particle dynamics in th
