The book explains how magnetized plasmas self-organize in states of
electromagnetic turbulence that transports particles and energy out of the
core plasma faster than anticipated by the fusion scientists designing
magnetic confinement systems in the 20th century. It describes theory,
experiments and simulations in a unified and up-to-date presentation of
the issues of achieving nuclear fusion power.
