I used in another username to ask questions from this book, its second edition.
I made a google search and didn't find any instructor's SM for the second edition, but it seems numerade website has complete solutions for questions from its first edition.
Did he add more problems to the second edition?
I guess I should give another visit to the univ library, a lot to read and solve.
Happy, happy, joy joy... :oldbiggrin:

So there are 20 new problems, and some old ones that got deleted but perhaps still appear in numerade, maybe.

But it's good to know how to do both so that you get unstuck when you hit a brick wall.

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!
