It is possible to "stretch" a liquid and, when suitably prepared,
liquids are capable of sustaining substantial levels of tension,
often for significant periods of time. These negative pressure
states are metastable but can last for days - long enough for
substantial experimental investigation. This volume is a review of
recent and current research into the behaviour of liquids under
negative pressure. Part I deals with the thermodynamics of
stretched liquids. Part II discusses the physical and chemical
behaviour of liquids under negative pressure. Part III contains
papers on the effect of negative pressure on the solidification of
a liquid. Part IV is devoted to stretched helium and Part V
discusses cavitation in various stretched liquids. Part VI deals
with the effect of foreign substances on cavitation.
