Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixty internationally well-known physicist from 15 countries will reflect on past accomplishments in nuclear physics to current challenges and future directions in nuclear physics. Topics range from neutrino physics and grand unification; physics of compressed and hot nuclear matter, the nuclear equation of state, expected phase transition to quark-gluon plasma, meson condensates, etc., the tremendous potential of high energy heavy ion physics to nuclear structure. Recent developments in nuclear instrumentation for studying nuclei far from stability and applications of nuclear physics will also be discussed.
