This book covers recent theoretical, numerical and experimental developments in the field of frustrated spin systems. The book is organized as follows. The first two chapters deal with properties and phase transition in frustrated Ising spin systems. The two following chapters deal with the nature of the phase transition in frustrated vector spin systems. Chapters 5 and 6 treat low-dimensional frustrated quantum spin models. Chapter 7 studies the spin ice and chapter 8 shows recent experimental results on pyrochlores which are real frustrated materials. Chapter 9 deals with the classical and quantum spin glasses where both disorder and frustration act simultaneously. http://www.worldscibooks.com/physics/5697.html
