Imaging in High Energy Astronomy Proceedings of the International Workshop held in Anacapri (Capri-Italy), 26–30 September 1994

An almost complete collection of the papers given at the International Workshop on Imaging in High Energy Astronomy (Anacapri, Italy, 1994). These proceedings, which concentrate on imaging above 10 keV, represent the state of the art in the field, resulting from the success of many missions (I.C. Gr...
