Quantum Mechanics
Non-Relativistic Theory
3rd Edition
January 1, 1981
L D Landau + 1 more
English
This edition has been completely revised to include some 20% of new material. Important recent developments such as the theory of Regge poles are now included. Many problems with solutions have been added to those already contained in the book.
Physical Kinetics
Volume 10
1st Edition
January 1, 1981
L. P. Pitaevskii + 1 more
English
This volume is mainly concerned with a systematic development of the theory of plasmas, the authority being firmly rooted in the pioneering work of Landau. Corresponding results are also given for partially ionized plasmas, relativistic plasmas, degenerate or non-ideal plasmas and solid state plasmas.
The Classical Theory of Fields
Volume 2
4th Edition
January 1, 1980
L D Landau + 1 more
English
The fourth edition contains seven new sections with chapters on General Relativity, Gravitational Waves and Relativistic Cosmology. The text has been thoroughly revised and additional problems inserted.The Complete course of Theoretical Physics by Landau and Lifshitz, recognized as two of the world's outstanding physicists, is published in full by Butterworth-Heineman... It comprises nine volumes, covering all branches of the subject; translations from the Russian are by leading scientists.
Statistical Physics
Volume 5
3rd Edition
January 1, 1980
L D Landau + 1 more
English
A lucid presentation of statistical physics and thermodynamics which develops from the general principles to give a large number of applications of the theory.
Statistical Physics
Theory of the Condensed State
1st Edition
January 1, 1980
E.M. Lifshitz + 1 more
English
The second part of 'Statistical Physics' deals with the quantum theory of the condensed state of matter. This volume is essentially an entirely new book, based on the large amount of new material which has become available in statistical physics since' Part 1' was published.

Mechanics
Volume 1
3rd Edition
January 1, 1976
L D Landau + 1 more
English
Devoted to the foundation of mechanics, namely classical Newtonian mechanics, the subject is based mainly on Galileo's principle of relativity and Hamilton's principle of least action. The exposition is simple and leads to the most complete direct means of solving problems in mechanics.The final sections on adiabatic invariants have been revised and augmented. In addition a short biography of L D Landau has been inserted.
Tables: Compressible Flow of Dry Air
3rd Edition
September 1, 1975
E. Houghton + 1 more
English
This is the third edition of a book which has consistently fulfilled its aim of making a low-priced collection of tables available to the student and practicing engineer. In the second edition all parameters were made non-dimensional. This new edition now includes and additional table of Isentropic flow; it is hoped that this inclusion will significantly increase the range of application of the book's data.
A Course in Pure Mathematics
1st Edition
January 1, 1974
Margaret Gow
English
For students reading Mathematics, either as part of a general degree or as an ancilliary course for an Honours degree, the subject should be presented in as straightforward a manners as is consistent with a moderate standard of rigour. This course in algebra, co-ordinate geometry and calculus is designed to fulfil these requirements for students at Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Technology.The book contains 350 worked examples and 1550 practice examples selected mainly from university examination papers. The practice examples have been carefully graded and some hints are given with the answers so that the book may be used for private study as well as for class work.
