- spin polarizabilities and compton scattering
- chiral perturbation theory and other low-energy limits of QCD
- lattice QCD, duality, and phenomological models
- nuclear effects and the GDH sum rule in nuclei
- experimental techniques (polarized targets and bearns)
- future plans and projects
- Features contributions from renowned experts in the field, including Xiangdon Ji, Ulf Meissner and John Negele
- Presents a comprehensive overview of the field
- Includes up-to-date research results from many international laboratories and pedagogical overview talks
