OXFORD MASTER SERIES IN PHYSICS

The Oxford Master Series is designed for final year undergraduate and
beginning graduate students in physics and related disciplines. It has
been driven by a perceived gap in the literature today. While basic
undergraduate physics texts often show little or no connection with the
huge explosion of research over the last two decades, more advanced
and specialized texts tend to be rather daunting for students. In this
series, all topics and their consequences are treated at a simple level,
while pointers to recent developments are provided at various stages.
The emphasis in on clear physical principles like symmetry, quantum
mechanics, and electromagnetism which underlie the whole of physics.
At the same time, the subjects are related to real measurements and to
the experimental techniques and devices currently used by physicists in
academe and industry. Books in this series are written as course books,
and include ample tutorial material, examples, illustrations, revision
points, and problem sets. They can likewise be used as preparation for
students starting a doctorate in physics and related fields, or for recent
graduates starting research in one of these fields in industry.
