Modern physics basis for magnetic properties of matter

mafra

Do you people know any decent and simple (no fancy math) material for the atomic physics around diamagnetism, paramagnetism and ferromagnetism?

Topics like wave-particle duality, energy levels, solids, why metals are conductors, relation between magnetic moment and effective mass of electrons, curie law and etc

I had just one class on these stuff and couldn't understand a thing

Test in six hours, hope you give me some help :}
