? Covers many new materials that are emerging as scintillators that can achieve energy resolution that is better by a factor of two compared with traditional materials (Chapters 8 and 10)

? New coverage on the increasing use of digital techniques in the processing of pulses from detectors (Chapters 16, 17, and 18).

? New coverage on ROC curves (Chapter 3)

? Discussion on micropattern gas detectors (Chapter 6).

? New sensors for scintillation light, thick film semiconductors (Chapter 9)

? Revised discussions are also included on

o TLDs and cryogenic spectrometers (Chapter 19),

o radiation backgrounds (Chapter 20), and

o the VME standard added to Appendix A.
