Summary:

As its predecessors, this, the eleventh ASI on Techniques and Concepts of High Energy Physics discusses the latest advances in the field, with contributions which are sufficiently detailed to be useful to advanced graduate students looking for an introduction to contemporary ideas in high energy physics, but not so long as to be burdensome. The present volume covers a wide range of topics from particle detectors to string theory at a level that should be useful to advanced graduate students specializing in experimental high energy physics. The volume includes a timely historical perspective on the past thirty years of the field.
