Inspired by a research programme held at the Newton Institute in Cambridge,this book contains reviews by lesding that summarize our current understanding of the nature of turbulence from theoretical,experimental,observational and computational and organized motion in wall turbulence;small scale structure;dynamics and statistics of homogeneous turbulence,turbulent transport and mixing;and effects of rotation,stratification and magnetohydrodynamics,as well as superfluid turbulence。
