Pressezitat
Introduces and progresses with the subject in ways that are very conducive to good learning and understanding, and fills a real (and currently unmet) need in an undergraduate's education in preparation for some of modern physics' most fascinating areas. S. Leslie Blatt, Clark University, Worcester, Massachusetts
