Since the first edition of this highly successful book the field saw many great developments both in experimental and theoretical studies of electrical properties of non-crystalline solids. It became necessary to rewrite nearly the whole book, while the aims of the second edition remained the same: to set out the theoretical concepts, to test them by comparison with experiment for a wide variety of phenomena, and to apply them to non-crystalline materials. Sir Nevill Mott shared the 1977 Nobel Prize for Physics, awarded for his research work in this field. The reissue of this book as part of the Oxford Classic Texts in the Physical Sciences is a reprint of the second edition which was published in 1979.
1. Introduction. 2. Theory of Electrons in a Non-Crystalline Medium. 3. Phonons and Polarons. 4. The Fermi Glass and the Anderson Transition. 5. Liquid Metals and Semimetals. 6. Non-Crystalline Semiconductors. 7. Tetrahedrally-Bonded Semiconductors - Amorphous Germanium and Silicon. 8. Aresnic and Other Three-Fold Co-ordinated Materials. 9.

Nevill Francis Mott was a former Cavendish Professor of Physcis at the University of Cambridge. He shared the 1977 Nobel Prize for Physics, awarded for his research work in this field. Edward Davis is Emeritus Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Leicester and Distinguished Research Fellow in the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge.
