The understanding of electronic behaviour in solids when (some of)
the valence electrons have both localized and band-like
characteristics is one of the central problems of physics and
chemistry in the second half of this century. Many advances have
indeed been made using highly sophisticated techniques and
concepts. Our objectives in bringing together specialists from
different areas was cross-fertilization of ideas and redefinition
of bottlenecks and problems. The testimony of the participants and
the book which follows indicate a fair degree of success. This book
is a record of discussions aimed at digestion and reassessment of
some of the recent major advances in our understanding of narrow
bands. Note that we expressly asked participants to give a short
readable account of the major problems in their field and not to
emphasize their latest results to be as "technical" as they might
be in a normal scientific article. We did not ask for complete
reviews of what was going on in the field and this book should not
be read as such. Neither should it be approached as the sort of
educational text which the NATO ASI proceedings are supposed to be.
We have tried to produce a useable account of a workshop in which
an attempt was made to define real problems and to distinguish them
from illusory problems.
