✦ Synopsis

For an introductory text, this is a sound decision, and helpful to the student, although it does lengthen the book and fill many pages with mathematical formulae.

Altogether, these books provide a sound and well-based introduction to the methods and applications of theoretical physics. The arguments given are constructed carefully and explicitly. A wide variety of applications are discussed, many of them quite modern in spirit, which will help to hold the student's attention. However, these volumes include no problem sets, which is rather a disadvantage for their use as a textbook.
