  Assuming an elementary knowledge of quantum and statistical physics, this book provides a comprehensive guide to principal physical properties of condensed matter, as well as the underlying theory necessary for a proper understanding of their origins. The subject matter covers the principal features of condensed matter physics, but with particular accent on the properties of metal alloys. Relevance to technical applications is recognized.

  This comprehensive textbook is suitable for college and undergraduate students with only one course on solid state physics in their curriculum and demands only a knowledge of elementary wave mechanics, atomic and general physics. The text gives students a basic understanding of the properties of solids, and, in particular, metals. Physical phenomena are presented in the light of simple models, and experimental data are taken from the solid state research literature. It is a modern, illustrated work and treats the most recent advances in solid state physics such as quasicrystals, high-Tc superconductors and heavy fermion systems. SI units are used throughout and chapters are provided with problems (and answers) to test the reader's grasp of the material.
