The second volume covers diverse topics, including strong coupling expansions and their analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, two-dimensional conformal field theory, and simple disordered systems. The book concludes with a chapter on random geometry and the Polyakov model of random surfaces, which illustrates the relations between string theory and statistical physics.

Review:

"Consid�rant la qualit� du mat�riel et de la pr�sentation, je trouve le prix excellent et je ne peux que recommander l'achat de ces deux bouquins." Physics in Canada

"I strongly recommend these two volumes to anyone from intermediate graduate students to active experienced researchers to aging veterans who need to be reminded of or learn for the first time the broad conceptual framework underlying the many current applications of field theoretic methods." Paul Ginsparg, Foundations of Physics

"...a useful addition to a personal or an institutional library at a modest cost." C. A. Hurst, Mathematical Reviews
