Order also onThe book ‘Quasiparticles’ is meant for a circle of readers. No complicated mathematical, nor derivations are used. The presentation on analogies, assuming the readers to possess certain degree of intuition in the field of physics. The book tells how atomic particles move inside solids, what is meant by the term “thermal motion”, and how the characteristics of motion of atomic particles are revealed in the macroscopic properties of solids.
