Reviews

<br> For a subject like plasma physics. . .the ideal textbook is not only clear and authoritative, but also short and priced at a level where students might reasonably be expected to buy it. Dr. Dendy's book meets all these criteria admirably. . . .The treatment here is very clear and well written and the author is careful to describe in detail the physical effects which underline mathematical results. For anyone who wishes a short introduction to the fundamentals of plasma physics or who is teaching a course on the subject, this is a very attractive addition to the literature. --ContemporaryPhysics<p><br> One of the most clear and lucid introductions I have ever read in the field of plasma physics. The author's style and simplicity create an even flowing and logical story that not only makes this book easy to read but should also makes it easy to use a text in class. . . .A must for libraries. --Ann. Nucl. Energy<p><br>
