The book covers the main aspects of dynamic phenomena in confined magnetic structures on a level that researchers find a comprehensive compilation of the current status in the field. Introductory chapters help the newcomer to understand the basic concepts, and more advanced chapters give the current state of the art on most spin dynamic aspects ranging from milliseconds to femtoseconds. Emphasis is placed both on the discussion of the experimental techniques and on the theoretical work. The comprehensive presentation of these developments makes this volume very timely and valuable for every researcher working in the field of magnetism.
