Quantum Theory of Many-Particle Systems - (Dover Books on Physics) by Alexander L Fetter & John Dirk Walecka (Paperback)

This comprehensive and unified textbook on nonrelativistic many-particle systems is a must-have for any graduate student or teacher in the field.

With its self-contained treatment of both formalism and applications, this book provides a solid introduction to procedures that enables students to adopt techniques for their own use.

The discussions of Green's functions and field theory, Fermi systems, linear response, and collective modes are particularly noteworthy, as they provide a thorough understanding of the subject matter.

Additionally, the text covers canonical transformations and applications to physical systems in terms of nuclear matter, phonons and electrons, superconductivity, and superfluid helium, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in this field.

Whether you are just starting out in your studies or looking to expand your knowledge in the field, this textbook is an invaluable tool that will help you succeed.
