Nice one, I was wondering what books to buy. I have just begun studying QM but I want to see the big picture. They better be worth the 60 euro! Cheers ;-)

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?
