Nice book. It's a good book to start solid state .There are a lot of basic concepts given in this book in great detail.But there are not much questions to solve and practise.But its the best for theoritical knowledge. --Satyapriya Krishna Mar 3, 2013

Good book but worst courier service The book is no doubt very good, packing is also good but only thing is the worst courier service provided. --Subhomoy Haldar Oct 19, 2014 Good book but worst courier service The book is no doubt very good, packing is also good but only thing is the worst courier service provided.

Biographie de l'auteur

Neil W. Ashcroft (born 27 November 1938 in London) is a British solid-state physicist. Ashcroft completed his undergraduate studies at the University of New Zealand (Bachelor 1958) received his PhD in 1964 from Cambridge University. He completed post docs at the University of Chicago and at Cornell University, where he became a Professor in 1975. In 1990 he was named the Horace White Professor of Physics, and was elected to emeritus status in 2006. He served as the director for the Laboratory of Atomic and Solid State Physics at Cornell University (1979-1984), the director for the Cornell Center for Materials Research (1997-2000), and as the deputy director for the High Energy Synchrotron Source (1990-1997).[1] Between 1986 and 1987, he served as the head of the Condensed Matter division of the American Physical Society. Since 1997, he has been a member of the National Academy of Sciences. His textbook on solid-state physics, written with N. David Mermin, is a standard text in the field.
