This undergraduate textbook merges traditional solid state physics with contemporary condensed matter physics, providing an up-to-date introduction to the major concepts that form the foundations of condensed materials. The main foundational principles are emphasized, providing students with the knowledge beginners in the field should understand. The book is structured in four parts and allows students to appreciate how the concepts in this broad area build upon each other to produce a cohesive whole as they work through the chapters. Illustrations work closely with the text to convey concepts and ideas visually, enhancing student understanding of difficult material, and end-of-chapter exercises ... Read more

Reviews for Fundamentals of Condensed Matter and Crystalline Physics: An Introduction for Students of Physics and Materials Science
'This book provides a superb and much needed introduction to contemporary condensed matter physics, emphasizing that the solid phase covers much more than the perfect crystals of traditional textbooks. Liquids and selected topics of soft matter are also covered. In a pedagogical tour-de-force, Sidebottom explains the concepts in the simplest possible terms, without compromising accuracy. I highly [recommend] this book.' ... Read more
