This revised edition provides an up-to-date summary of the field of
ultra-high energy cosmic rays, dealing with their origin,
propagation, and composition,. The authors reflect the enormous
strides made since the first edition in the realm of experimental
work, in particular the use of vastly improved, more sensitive and
precise detectors. The level remains introductory and pedagogical,
suitable for students and researchers interested in moving into
this exciting field. Throughout the text, the authors focus on
giving an introductory overview of the key physics issues, followed
by a clear and concise description of experimental approaches and
current results. Key Features: Updates the most coherent summary of
the field available, with new text that provides the reader with
clear historical context. Brand new discussion of contemporary
space-based experiments and ideas for extending ground-based
detectors. Completely new discussion of radio detection methods.
Includes a new chapter on small to intermediate-scale anisotropy.
Offers new sections on modern hadronic models and software packages
to simulate showers.
