Review articles on three topics of considerable current interest
make up the present volume. The first, on A-hypernuclei, was
solicited by the editors in order to provide nuclear physicists
with a general description of the most recent developments in a
field which this audience has largely neglected or, perhaps, viewed
as a novelty in which a bizarre nuclear system gave some
information about the lambda-nuclear intersection. That view was
never valid. The very recent developments reviewed
here-particularly those pertaining to hypernuclear excitations and
the strangeness exchange reactions-emphasize that this field
provides important information about the models and central ideas
of nuclear physics. The off-shell behavior of the nucleon-nucleon
interaction is a topic which was at first received with some
embarrassment, abuse, and neglect, but it has recently gained
proper attention in many nuclear problems. Interest was first
focused on it in nuclear many-body theory, but it threatened
nuclear physicists'comfortable feeling about nonrelativistic
potential theory, and many no doubt hoped that it would remain
merely an esoteric diversion within the many-body cult. In the
editors' opinion, this subject is now emi nently respectable and a
review of it indeed timely. The third topic, nuclear charge
distributions, is one which almost every nuclear physicist believed
had been weIl in hand for some years."
