Professor Yoseph (Joe) Imry, an early initiator of mesoscopic physics, has been among the leaders in this field for several decades. This book mainly summarizes the invited talks presented at two conferences held in honor of his 70th birthday: the 101st Statistical Mechanics Conference at Rutgers University and Perspectives of Macroscopic Physics at the Weizmann Institute of Science. The contributors are leading (theoretical and experimental) scientists working in nanoscience and in related fields. Comprising both reviews of the state-of-the-art and the latest results, this book covers a broad range of active research in nanoscience, including topics like quantum interference, decoherence, electron correlations, nano superconductors and nano magnets, nonequilibrium and glassy behavior.
