Abstract

The importance is discussed of experimental studies of the metal-insulator transition induced by a magnetic field in systems that exhibit an anomalous critical exponent in the absence of a field. Comments are presented on the search for the intrinsic field-driven behaviour in an example of such a system (Ge:Sb), including some of the difficulties.
