Overview

This monograph, suitable for use as an advanced text, presents the statistical mechanics of solids from the perspective of the material properties of the solid state. The statistical mechanics are developed as a tool for understanding properties and each chapter includes useful excercies to illustrate the topics covered. Topics discussed include the theory of the harmonic crystal, the theory of free elcetrons in metal and semiconductors, electron transport, alloy ordering, sufaces and polymers.
