Eruptive Solar Flares : Proceedings of Colloquium No. 133 of the International Astronomical Union Held at Iguazu, Argentina, 2-6 August 1991

This is an exhaustive survey of present-day solar research including both theory and observations. It deals with eruptive flares, filament eruption in x-rays and radio waves, energy release and transport, and terrestrial response to solar flares. Details of the most recent SOLAR-A project (launched shortly after the conference) are also presented.
