    Is it worth going through all of Landau-Lifshitz?

    Statistical Physics 1 and 2 are awesome, so is Physical Kinetics. Yet to understand the last one, its the culmination of the last 5 books. So that's Stat 1, Fluids, Elasticity, Continuous Electro, and Stat 2. It is a beautiful treatment of plasmas using kinetic theory and a Feynman-like graph...

    Recomendations for the best Statistical Mechanics books

    For a good self study guide, I would suggest Blundell and Blundell's "Concepts in Thermal Physics" it builds up the thermodynamics part for a good 1/3 of the book but then the rest is statistical mech, has several applications of both, many practical and it includes several discussions in...

    Euclidean Quantum Gravity and its relevance

    Hello all, I was wondering if Hawking's approach is still relevant. Found a book on his compilation of papers an amazon and had heard a talk by him suggesting it as a view to continue research. With all the hoo ha on M-theory and etc, would it be possible to buy this collection of papers for...
