Written by a world-renowned theoretical physicist, this textbook thoroughly familiarizes advanced undergraduate students with the different aspects of statistical physics. Along with many new exercises, this second edition expands discussion of phase transition in thermodynamics, covers stochastic processes in greater depth, reflects current research and emerging technology concerning Bose-Einstein condensation, and makes the Ginsburg-Landau theory of the order parameter accessible to students. The methodology is illustrated with applications in information theory, the stock market, computer simulations, semiconductors, and more. A solutions manual is available upon qualifying course adoption.
