Book Faraday Optical Optics

AI Thread Summary

The discussion centers on finding comprehensive books that cover the Faraday rotator and the Faraday effect in optics. The only mentioned textbook is Melvin Schwartz's "Principles of Electrodynamics," which provides some information on the topic. However, the participant notes a lack of book references, as most available information is found in articles rather than textbooks. The conversation highlights the challenge of locating in-depth resources specifically focused on the Faraday effect within the context of optics.

The only textbook I have which covers the Faraday effect at all is Melvin Schwartz's Principles of Electrodynamics. Most references I can find on the Faraday effect and Faraday rotators are articles, not books.

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!
