Title: Many-Particle Physics (Physics of Solids and Liquids) by Gerald D. Mahan ISBN: 0-306-46338-5 Publisher: Plenum Publishing Corporation Pub. Date: 15 January, 2000 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $151.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4 (2 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Containing too many misprints.
Comment: Unfortunately, the 3rd edition of Mahan's book contains enormous number of misprints. Sometimes, it is impossible to understand what is meant by the author without consulting the previous edition. For example, in Sec. 4.1.5. the author refers in the text to the equation which apparently should be between Eqs. (4.126) and (4.127) but which had been omitted. At the same time, some evident drawbacks of the previous edition have not been corrected. For example, the definition of the thermodynamic average used in Sec. 3.6 is different from that used in the previous sections, although it is not mentioned in the text. Despite the book is an excellent introduction into the field of Many-Particle Physics, I would recommend to the customer to either buy the previous edition or to wait for a new one.
Rating: 5
Summary: Bien detaille, comprehensible.
Comment: Un excellent livre sur un sujet d'actualite. G. Mahan discute de nombreuses en detaillant a chaque fois les etapes necessaires et en ne negligeant pas les explications ni les liens entre les differentes theories. Vu le prix, courez a votre bibliotheque pour vous le procurer!
