This is a terrific introduction to the subject. It’s lucid, covers all aspects in a consise manner and is very readable. I like this book, because it is a good marriage of readability as well as some mathematical rigor. Useful for students with backgrounds in many fields!
Has a section on nanostructures that is terrific in that it covers many of the recent structures that have been fabricated and used to verify physical laws.
Definitely a book worth buying.
