Twenty invited lectures and progress reports document one subject of the Summer School and International Symposium on the Physics of Ionized gases in Belgrade in September 1993; another volume covers atomic collisions and beam-solid interactions. The perspectives on low-temperature plasmas include the influence of metastables on the breakdown proba
