Need material on anisotropic conductivity

I've stumbled upon a problem whilst doing my master thesis

The problem is to construct the anisotropic conductivity tensor for a material that exhibits Anisotropic magnetoresistance. The problem has left me quite baffled, and coming to think of it, I've never seen a proper treatment of anisotropic conductivity in any of my textbooks or lecture notes.

Well, that only proves that my collection of textbooks is incomplete. Can anyone recommend some good material on the topic?

(Please don't give the solution if you know it, I'd like to have a go at it myself)

Thanks

Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
