Product Review
Low Temperature Physics is unique in the breadth of topics covered in one text and the extent to which it emphasizes the interconnectedness of various subjects, which is frequently lost in this age of specialization. Christian Enss and Siegfried Hunklinger have written an extremely readable book [T]he book treats well the classical topics of the field of low-temperature physics, and it does an great job in about 550 pages [M]uch is to be learned from Enss and Hunklinger's book. And students who read
Low Temperature Physics will benefit from it.

Product Description
This book provides a concise but thorough introduction to important phenomena of low-temperature physics. It is ideally suited as a textbook for advanced undergraduates but will also be valuable to graduate students, scientists and engineers working in this field. Clear explanations of both theoretical and experimental approaches coupled with carefully selected problems will enable students to gain a firm understanding of even the most recent research developments.
Reader ReviewsThis is an up-to-date "must have" book for all those working in the area of low temperature physics. Profs Enss and Hunklinger should be congratulated in having produced such a wonderful book. It is based upon a course taught by these professors for many years, and consequently is ideal for use as a text book on which to base a graduate level course on low temperature physics.
