This self-contained treatment of nonrelativistic many-particle systems discusses both formalism and applications in terms of ground-state (zero-temperature) formalism, finite-temperature formalism, canonical transformations, and applications to physical systems. 149 figures. 8 tables. 1971 edition.
Here's a sample of other books in this Dover category
The Physical Principles of the Quantum Theory by Werner Heisenberg Nobel Laureate discusses quantum theory, uncertainty, wave mechanics, work of Dirac, Schroedinger, Compton, Einstein, others. "An authoritative statement of Heisenberg's views on this aspect of the quantum theory." — Nature.
Quantum Theory by David Bohm This advanced undergraduate-level text presents the quantum theory in terms of qualitative and imaginative concepts, followed by specific applications worked out in mathematical detail.
Quantum Mechanics by Albert Messiah Subjects include formalism and its interpretation, analysis of simple systems, symmetries and invariance, methods of approximation, elements of relativistic quantum mechanics, much more. "Strongly recommended." — American Journal of Physics.
Weak Interactions and Modern Particle Theory by Howard Georgi This high-level, rigorous, and technical treatment was written by a distinguished teacher and researcher. Equally valuable as a text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students and as a reference for professionals. 1984 edition.
Applications of Group Theory in Quantum Mechanics by M. I. Petrashen, J. L. Trifonov This advanced text explores the theory of groups and their matrix representations. The main focus rests upon point and space groups, with applications to electronic and vibrational states. 1969 edition.
Quantum Mechanics: New Approaches to Selected Topics by Harry J. Lipkin Acclaimed as "excellent" (Nature) and "very original and refreshing" (Physics Today), these studies examine the Mössbauer effect, many-body quantum mechanics, scattering theory, Feynman diagrams, and relativistic quantum mechanics. 1973 edition.
Nonlinear Mechanics: A Supplement to Theoretical Mechanics of Particles and Continua by Alexander L. Fetter, John Dirk Walecka In their prior Dover book, the authors provided a self-contained account of classical mechanics; this supplement/update offers a bridge to contemporary mechanics. Topics include nonlinear continuous systems. 2006 edition.
Quantum Mechanics of Particles and Wave Fields by Arthur March A complete explanation of quantum mechanics, from early non-relativistic formulation to complex field theories used extensively in theoretical research, this volume assumes no specialized knowledge. 1951 edition.
Introduction to Superconductivity: Second Edition by Michael Tinkham This classic text emphasizes physical arguments and minimizes theoretical formalism. Topics include the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer and Ginzburg-Landau theories, magnetic properties of classic type II superconductors, the Josephson effect, more. 1996 edition.
