Electrodynamics of Continuous Media: Volume 8 2nd Edition by L D Landau (PDF)

Description

Covers the theory of electromagnetic fields in matter, and the theory of macroscopic electric and magnetic properties of matter. There is a considerable amount of new material particularly on the theory of the magnetic properties of matter and the theoryof optical phenomena with new chapters on spatial dispersion and non-linear optics.

Editorial Reviews: Review ‘a book which can be thoroughly recommended to every physicist.’ Nature ‘unique and indispensable…’ Science Progress

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐As usual, the books in this series are well written and easy to understand. The Series in Theoretical Physics never disappoints. Book arrived quickly and in good condition.

⭐It’s a classic that was missing from my library. A well-bound paperback edition.

⭐Thank you!

⭐Great book – plain and simple. Edition was in nearly perfect shape too, so no issues there. Go for it.

⭐LLP is the gold standard for our understanding of the electrodynamic properties of matter. Although Jackson is the most common textbook, I prefer LLPs succinct style that focuses only on essential points.

⭐Required for a class. It’s Landau, of course, so not easy to read at all, but the book was in excellent condition.

⭐The printing is bad. Like they did it on a old newspaper.

⭐The spine was wrinkled when I got it. :

⭐Los libros de Landau son excelentes. El problema con algunos de los libros que nos envían de E.U.A. es que la calidad es deplorable. Pedí el de física estadística de esta misma serie y me enviaron uno que se imprimió en Inglaterra y el papel es de muchísimo mejor calidad, al igual que el empastado. Cuando uno lo compara con éste que se imprimió en E.U.A., éste es una porquería. La gente que aceptó que se imprimieran en este formato seguro jamás a abierto un libro en su vida por lo que no puede reconocer la diferencia con los libros de imprenta que tienen un mínimo del estándar necesario.Bajo mi punto de vista, todos los libros de esta serie deberían estar presentes en la biblioteca personal de cualquier físico, pero este libro, sobre la teoría de los campos electromagnéticos macroscópicos en presencia de medios materiales es especialmente recomendable, la exposición de los temas es muy clara y directa (aunque son necesarios unos fundamentos matemáticos de álgebra y análisis bastante sólidos para entender la literatura de Landau). Básicamente una joya, y complementado con el volumen 2 sobre teoría clásica de campos y el volumen 4 sobre electrodinámica cuántica, ofrecen un tratamiento extensivo de la teoría electromagnética bastante al día.Un libro muy recomendable para los investigadores relacionados con las aplicaciones de la electrodinámica de los medios continuos a los transductores electroacústicos.Ideias sempre bem encadeadas, desenvolvimento lógico, com conceitos claros, consegue tornar evidentes transformações complexas, pois o objetivo do livro é desenvolver o raciocínio de modo a aceitar abstrações com muita simplicidade.Previously I had the Jackson’s book on Electrodynamics and it seems that this book has nothing more to offer except the part that talks about the magnetohydro-dynamics.
