BL Lac objects : proceedings of a workshop held in Como, Italy, September 20 23, 1988

This volume gives a comprehensible survey of BL Lac objects: contributors summarize observations on these interesting astrophysical objects and present theoretical models to explain them. Understanding these objects should help to give a better insight into the physics of black holes and relativisti...
