Prof. Dr. Mário José de Oliveira has studied physics at the University of Sao Paulo (Brasil) and at the Carnegie-Mellon University (USA). He has more than 25 years of teaching experience at the University of Sao Paulo in condensed matter physics and thermodynamics. His research interests are phase transitions, critical phenomena and stochastic dynamics.
Offers an ideal mixture of thorough theoretical explanation and applications in several areas of physics and chemistry
Contains many examples, each accompanied by it's precise physical background, as well as problems and exercises to deepen the knowledge
New edition presents is updated and contains up-to-date references for each topic at the end of the book which are valuable for further studies of the subject
