The second part of 'Statistical Physics' deals with the quantum theory of the condensed state of matter. This volume is essentially an entirely new book, based on the large amount of new material which has become available in statistical physics since' Part 1' was published.

The second part of Statistical Physics deals with the quantum theory of the condensed state of matter; it gives a detailed exposition of Landau's theory of Bose and Fermi quantum liquids. The Green's function approach is developed systematically and the convenience of calculating...

A lucid presentation of statistical physics and thermodynamics which develops from the general principles to give a large number of applications of the theory.
