Table of ContentsReviews'… written in a very clear manner so that it can be understood by any student with a basic background in physics … the first part concentrates on basic concepts of solid state physics … such as the band theory and methods for energy-band calculations, phonons and lattice dynamics. The second part of the book is focused on topological phenomena in condensed matter-starting from a historical perspective and ending with modern aspects … such as Dirac materials and Dirac fermions. The largest part of the book deals with many-body physics, and in this context magnetism, superconductivity or Bose-Einstein condensation … useful exercises can be found at the end of each chapter, and a list of references is provided … This book is a very good guide for readers interested in modern aspects of condensed matter and a very good course of solid state physics. Therefore, a respectable physics library must have this book on its shelves.'

Daniela Dragoman, Optics and Photonics News 'The book is very comprehensive and deals with all areas of quantum condensed matter physics from the viewpoint of theoretical physics … I think that the book is an excellent introduction not only for condensed matter physicists but also for mathematicians who are familiar with quantum condensed matter physics.' Shuji Watanabe, zbMATH Author InformationMichael El-Batanouny is a Professor of Physics at Boston University. He is the author of Symmetry and Condensed Matter Physics: A computational approach (Cambridge, 2008). His research area is in surface physics, where he has an international reputation in the topics of nonlinear surface physics, surface dynamics, surface magnetism, and more recently, in topological aspects of surfaces, especially in electron-phonon related phenomena.
