Models of Disorder: The Theoretical Physics of Homogeneously Disordered Systems

Softcover first edition of Models of Disorder: The Theoretical Physics of Homogeneously Disordered Systems by J. M. Ziman, published in 1979 by Cambridge University Press. A respected graduate-level monograph examining theoretical models of disordered systems, including liquids, glasses, alloys, polymers, amorphous semiconductors, and magnetic materials. Topics include order-disorder phenomena, mean-field and coherent-potential approximations, percolation, scaling, and renormalization group concepts. This copy is in good condition: binding is solid; interior pages are clean and unmarked. Boards show moderate shelf wear and surface rubbing consistent with age. A dependable reference copy for researchers or advanced students in condensed-matter and statistical physics.
