These review articles by outstanding specialists cover the
present status ofthe observations of the spectrum and of
the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background
radiation. Experimental developments, data analysis and
related theoretical aspects are also treated. The idea is to
review and discuss at a level accessible to non-specialised
astronomers and graduate students the most recent
developments in this field as well as the future
perspectives for astrophysics and cosmology in particular.
The study of cosmic background radiation is of outstanding importance for our understanding of the universe. This volume reviews the field, emphasizing the observational data.
