Recenzii
"This is a careful and authoritative book on microdosimetry. No name is more closely associated with the subject than Rossi...The authors are to be congratulated on having produced a magnificent and much-needed work. This reviewer takes the liberty of saying 'thank you'" - Radiation Research
