This book is NOT intended to be the\u00a0proceedings of the workshop, but it will provide a coherent collection of in-depth papers informed by the presentations and discussions at the workshop. The book will give an overview of the current state of our subject and it is our ambition that it will become a\u00a0reference book for a considerable period of time. Typically, such a book comprises 8 to 12 papers\/chapters, each one authored by a group of participants (multiple authorship possible). All papers will be peer-reviewed and, in addition to their appearance in the\u00a0book, will be published individually in the journal Space Science Reviews. We aim for a submission of the papers within about 2 months after the workshop. The journal issue and the book are expected to appear within 8-10 months after the workshop.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.issibern.ch\/workshops\/gravitationallensing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2022\/06\/ISSI-WS-Strong-Lensing-2nd-Circular.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Circular (May 2022) &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Workshop Purpose The idea of this ISSI Workshop is to take stock of the considerable progress in our understanding of many aspects of strong gravitational lensing that has been made in the last decade.
