      abstract     = {The investigation of high-order harmonic generation (HHG)
                      of femtosecond laser pulses by means of laser-produced
                      plasmas is surveyed. This kind of harmonic generation is an
                      alternative to the HHG in gases and shows significantly
                      higher conversion efficiency. Furthermore, with plasma
                      targets there is no limitation on applicable laser intensity
                      and thus the generated harmonics can be much more intense.
                      In principle, harmonic light may also be generated at
                      relativistic laser intensity, in which case their harmonic
                      intensities may even exceed that of the focused laser pulse
                      by many orders of magnitude. This phenomenon presents new
                      opportunities for applications such as nonlinear optics in
                      the extreme ultraviolet region, photoelectron spectroscopy,
                      and opacity measurements of high-density matter with high
                      temporal and spatial resolution. On the other hand, HHG is
                      strongly influenced by the laser-plasma interaction itself.
                      In particular, recent results show a strong correlation with
                      high-energy electrons generated during the interaction
                      process. The harmonics are a promising tool for obtaining
                      information not only on plasma parameters such as the local
                      electron density, but also on the presence of large electric
                      and magnetic fields, plasma waves, and the (electron)
                      transport inside the target. This paper reviews the
                      theoretical and experimental progress on HHG via
                      laser-plasma interactions and discusses the prospects for
                      applying HHG as a short-wavelength, coherent optical tool.},
