Understanding turbulence in magnetically confined fusion plasmas is an important issue on the long road to fusion energy as a power source for humanity. Fusion plasmas are extreme, strongly driven systems, far from thermodynamic equilibrium, in which turbulence plays a major role. This book reviews some of the observations that reveal the complex nature of plasma turbulence in detail and explains their implications. The change in paradigm needed to understand the observations is...
