More Surprises in Theoretical Physics
Like its predecessor, this book by the renowned physicist Sir Rudolf Peierls draws from many diverse fields of theoretical
physics to present problems in which the answer differs from what our intuition had led us to expect. Les mer

Like its predecessor, this book by the renowned physicist Sir Rudolf Peierls draws from many diverse fields of theoretical
physics to present problems in which the answer differs from what our intuition had led us to expect. In some cases an apparently
convincing approximation turns out to be misleading; in others a seemingly unmanageable problem turns out to have a simple
answer. Peierls's intention, however, is not to treat theoretical physics as an unpredictable game in which such surprises
happen at random. Instead he shows how in each case careful thought could have prepared us for the outcome. Peierls has chosen
mainly problems from his own experience or that of his collaborators, often showing how classic problems can lend themselves
to new insights. His book is aimed at both graduate students and their teachers. Praise for Surprises in Theoretical Physics:
"e;A beautiful piece of stimulating scholarship and a delight to read. Physicists of all kinds will learn a great deal
from it."e;--R. J. Blin-Stoyle, Contemporary Physics
