SynopsisThis book provides an introduction to the field of solid state physics for undergraduate students in physics, chemistry, engineering, and materials science.
Standard, hard cover version is about 8"x11". This paperback is 6"x9", and the paper it is printed on is thinner. It would have been nice to know the dimensions of the book before purchasing. Other than that, it is a bargain for the price I paid.
