Taking a straightforward, logical approach that emphasizes symmetry and crystal relationships, this successful textbook provides a thorough explanation of the topic for students studying the solid state in chemistry, physics, materials science, geological sciences, and engineering.

The fifth edition of this well-established, highly regarded two-volume set continues to provide a fundamental introduction to advanced particle physics while incorporating substantial new experimental results, especially in the areas of Higgs and top sector physics, as well as CP violation and neutrino oscillations.

The book presents a practical guide to using a small astronomical telescope of a size that corresponds to most “first” telescopes – around 75 to 150 mm, i.e. 3 to 6 inches, in diameter.

This book explores quantum computing as a transformative technology and its applications in cryptography, teleportation, IoT, AI, and Blockchain, and the futurist concept of quantum internet.

This book introduces the reader to the fascinating and sometimes bizarre world of space rocks using a simple, clear layman-friendly style. It explains why they are so special and describes their main characteristics.

This book introduces you to the physics of cosmic rays, charged particles which reach us from known – and maybe unknown – sources in the cosmos.

The fifth edition of this well-established, highly regarded two-volume set continues to provide a fundamental introduction to advanced particle physics while incorporating substantial new experimental results, especially in the areas of Higgs and top sector physics, as well as CP violation and neutrino oscillations.

Baum and Smith, both professors evolutionary biology and researchers in the field of systematics, present this highly accessible introduction to phylogenetics and its importance in modern biology.

This book is designed to be an introduction to the field, covering the history of the concept and related theoretical models from cluster physics.

The Sixth Edition of Physics for Scientists and Engineers offers a completely integrated text and media solution that will help students learn most effectively and will enable professors to customize their classrooms so that they teach most efficiently. The text includes a new strategic problem-solving approach, an integrated Math Tutorial, and new tools to improve conceptual understanding.
