Quantum Gases: Finite
Temperature and Non-Equilibrium Dynamics
Edited by: Nick Proukakis, Simon Gardiner,
Matthew Davis, Marzena Szymańska. World
Scientific Amazon.com
"This book should be the first reference
point for learning about various theoretical
approaches to describing quantum gases. The
editors and contributors have created a
unique book with well-written articles,
meaningful comparisons of various
approximation schemes, a uniform notation
and more than one thousand references. In
addition, the book features introductory
chapters and up-to-date review articles of
experimental methods and current frontiers.
The completeness and depth of the
presentation are impressive." --Wolfgang
