First of all I apologize since writing isn't technically a science...

It seems there are myriad resources out there I can use to learn anything science or math related. My question would be, are there any text's that are to writing what Apostol/Spivak are to calculus? I wish to become a better writer. Also any other resources or advice would be appreciated.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
