The purpose of the present book is to stress that cluster science is one common and highly interdisciplinary field, and to bridge several of the, at first glance disparate, research fields. The physicist may lea some aspects about cluster chemistry, the chemist about potentials of cluster matter, the quantum theorist about classical numerical methods, the molecular spectroscopist about larger, colloidal particles and so on. We observe cluster science to expand rapidly at present, and hence, both, a review conceing the present state and a textbook devoted to the basics will - as we hope - induce and increase interdisciplinary discussion and research
