Thanks to the diamond-anvil cell, which has made possible much higher pressures, and to new and very accurate theoretical models and methods, \u003ci\u003ePhase Diagrams of the Elements\u003c\/i\u003e presents the most up-to-date information on the phase behavior of all the chemical elements from hydrogen to fermium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book summarizes, with the aid of tables and illustrations, the experimental data and the theoretical calculations. Each element is discussed in a separate section. Other chapters deal with methods, the liquid-vapor transition, and an overview of the elements. While comprehensively reviewing all that has been done in this important area, the author also points to questions that need much more experimental and theoretical work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollecting these data in one place and analyzing them with a critical eye is extremely valuable.--Malcolm F.
