Concepts of Condensed Matter Science is dedicated to clear
of the concepts underlying experimental, theoretical and computational
developments, new phenomena and probes at the advancing frontiers of
rapidly evolving sub-fields of condensed matter science. The term
"condensed matter science" is central, because the boundaries between
matter physics, condensed matter chemistry, material science and
science are disappearing.
The overall goal of each volume in the Series is to provide the reader with an intuitively clear discussion of the underlying concepts and insights that are the "driving force" for the high profile major developments of the sub-field, while providing only the amount of theoretical, experimental and computational detail, data, and results that would be needed for the reader from whatever field to gain a conceptual understanding of the subject.
