Overview

This volume comprises the contributions presented at a NATO workshop which present an overview of inversion methods. The techniques are developed beyond that of linear and linearizable scattering problems into the areas of diffraction and diffusion problems. New developments in applied mathematics and mathematical physics are covered, together with applications in a variety of fields including astronomy, geophysics, microscopy, non-destructive testing and medical tomography.
