frequently used model in dielectrics, the

Virtually all data taken require some
form of modeling and curve fitting.
This excellent book will give the reader
a very clear understanding of the tech-

data; and, because it covers all the sig-

researchers involved with data taking
and modeling will greatly benefit from
this book.
