This book reviews recent experimental and theoretical evidence that the physical and structural properties of these materials are decisively influenced by strong spin-orbit interactions that compete with comparable Coulomb, magnetic exchange and crystalline electric field interactions. This competition often leads to unusual ground states and magnetic frustration that are unique to this class of materials. Novel coupling between the orbital\/lattice and spin degrees of freedom, which seriously challenge current theoretical models and are not addressed by traditional textbooks, are of particular interest, \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book also reviews a few techniques for single-crystal growth that are most suitable for the 4d- and 5d-transition metal oxides. The discussion is intended to help fill an existing void in the literature describing relevant synthesis techniques for 4d- and 5d-materials, which is a daunting experimental challenge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGang Cao, \u003cem\u003eProfessor of Physics, University of Colorado at Boulder\u003c\/em\u003e, Lance DeLong, \u003cem\u003eProfessor of Physics, University of Kentucky\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eProfessor Gang Cao.
