N2  - Many-particle systems play a fundamental role in physics where we encounter systems of molecules or systems of elementary particles in quantum field theory. Many-particle theories provide the basis for understanding the macroscopic behaviour of vast assemblies of interacting particles starting from their microscopic properties and leads to descriptions of entropy, statistical mechanics and fluid mechanics. Covering a wide range of topics and including more than 400 problems and solutions, this book is an ideal resource for students specialising in many-particle systems
