Plus est en vous ... (Device of the Lords of Gruuthuse, Brugge, 15th century) This book is based on, and contains the lectures of the NATO Advanced Study Institute NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IN SOLIDS, which was held August 26 to September 6, 1974, at the University of Leuven, Belgium. The planning of the Leuven Institute developed over several years. The idea came into being around 1971 in the A. E.I. O.U., the Association Europeenne pour une Interaction entre les Organismes Universitaires. The first practical steps were undertaken exactly two years before it took place, on the evening of the 25th of August 1972 in a restaurant on the Eerikinkatu in Turku, Finland, during the 17th Congress AMPERE. Meeting - and eating, of cours- that evening, in that most excellent restaurant, were Raymond Andrew, Karl Hausser, John Waugh and myself. From the beginning on it was decided to take as general theme of the Institute, the recent developments in high resolution and high sensitivity nuclear magnetic resonance in solids. | Nuclear Magnetic Resonance in Solids by Lieven Gerven, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
