Summary
Magnetism in Condensed Matter: Unveiling the Quantum World of Magnetic Materials
An understanding of the quantum mechanical nature of magnetism has led to the development of new magnetic materials which are used as permanent magnets, sensors, and information storage. Behind these practical applications lie a range of fundamental ideas, including symmetry breaking, order parameters, excitations, frustration, and reduced dimensionality.
This superb new textbook presents a logi…

What They're Saying
Critics Review
I can warmly recommend this book to anyone considering giving a course on magnetism and for those students of condensed matter physics, who have no access to such a course … it is also very useful and enjoyable reading for those who have been working in magnetism for some time and have felt the lack of a systematic review of the subject. … the reader or student obtains a very thorough and systematic background in which to place the large variety of subject matter.
