"He is beautiful and radiant with great splendor ... " St. Francis,
from Cantico del sole Two decades have elapsed since the
publication of Solar Prominences, 20 years that have seen a nearly
phenomenal increase in the interest, as well as the infor mation,
concerning these fascinating and beautiful manifestations of solar
ac tivity. During this period many meetings have been held, and
several books and proceedings have been published, all dealing with
specific aspects of solar prominences. However, no unifying and
comprehensive accord has appeared. Recently some of my colleagues
suggested that the time was ripe for a new addition of Solar
Prominences, and Kluwer Academic Publishers wanted to pub lish such
a book. I, therefore, venture to present this monograph in the hope
of kindling the interest of some graduate students in the study of
this-probably the most spectacular and often the most beautiful of
solar activity manifestation. However, since it is the physical
processes behind these events that will particu larly interest us,
I also hope the book may be of help to some of my colleagues. In a
rapidly developing field of science it is difficult, if not
impossible, to present an overview that is up to date in every
respect. I have made nearly every effort to include the latest
contributions in the broad area of prominence research, but I am
sure I have overlooked some important investigations. For these
oversights, I apologize."
