From the reviews:“The second volume is centered on the highly mobile portion of a solid, the electrons. … senior students in physics will be able to tutor themselves through reading this volume. The text will also be very useful to a non-specialist in the field of electronic properties or to a research scientist who wants to get a basic introduction to the field. … second volume of this series lives up to our expectations and will be very useful to students, teachers, and scientists in solid-state physics.” (Fernande Grandjean and Gary J. Long, Belgian Physical Society Magazine, Issue 3, 2010)
