The basic idea of the book is to provide a self-contained formulation of the theoretical framework without losing mathematical rigor, while at the same time providing physical motivation and examples. The examples are taken from applications in electron systems and transport theory. On the formal side, the book covers an introduction to second quantization, many-body Green's function, finite temperature Feynman diagrams and bosonization. The applications include traditional transport theory in bulk as well as mesoscopic systems, where both the Landau-Büttiker formalism and recent developments in correlated transport phenomena in mesoscopic systems and nano-structures are covered. Other topics include interacting electron gases, plasmons, electron-phonon interactions, superconductivity and a final chapter on one-dimensional systems where a detailed treatment of Luttinger liquid theory and bosonization techniques is given. Having grown out of a set of lecture notes, and containing many pedagogical exercises, this book is designed as a textbook for an advanced undergraduate or graduate course, and is also well suited for self-study. Review: Quantum theory - Good book Review: Very low number of errors, insightful, dense, yet pedagogical - The strength of this book is the low number of errors, compactness of its presentation, pedagogy, collection of exercises, emphasis of fundamentals, and careful calculation. Rarely is the reader left, unaided and unguided, to fill in gaping holes in logic. It is somewhat slow to work through the dense presentation. Also, the book treats some rather advanced topics (e.g., Matsubara sums, Feynman diagrams, etc.) with the same compactness. I had trouble understanding what the book was trying to communicate while taking a course. However, on revisiting the material after I'd finished the course, I realized the presentation was quite clear, and it was just my extremely-stressed state that was causing me to misinterpret the material. I should also say the extremely-ambitious course I took out of this book tried to cover almost the entire book, _and_ I was underqualified to take the course (I was concurrently taking only my first semester of introductory solid state physics). The book does say it is designed for a 2-semester course, not 1! It should be a statement about the book's clarity that the course wasn't a complete disaster for me...indeed, studying under such an ambitious instructor in such an unprepared state could have been a perfect-storm of a disaster! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #852,356 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #108 in Solid-State Physics (Books) #354 in Electromagnetism (Books) #769 in Quantum Theory (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 35 Reviews | ## Images ![Many-Body Quantum Theory in Condensed Matter Physics: An Introduction (Oxford Graduate Texts) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61KfXR8tcOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quantum theory *by C***G on February 8, 2026* Good book ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very low number of errors, insightful, dense, yet pedagogical *by B***T on May 21, 2013* The strength of this book is the low number of errors, compactness of its presentation, pedagogy, collection of exercises, emphasis of fundamentals, and careful calculation.
