"Should be widely read by practicing physicists, chemists and materials scientists." -- Philosophical Magazine
In this comprehensive and innovative text, Professor Harrison (Stanford University) offers a basic understanding of the electronic structure of covalent and ionic solids, simple metals, transition metals, and their compounds. The book illuminates the relationships of the electronic structures of these materials and shows how to calculate dielectric, conducting, and bonding properties for each. Also described are various methods of approximating electronic structure, providing insight and even quantitative results from the comparisons. Dr. Harrison has also included an especially helpful "Solid State Table of the Elements" that provides all the parameters needed to estimate almost any property of any solid, with a hand-held calculator, using the techniques developed in the book.
Designed for graduate or advanced undergraduate students who have completed an undergraduate course in quantum mechanics or atomic and modern physics, the text treats the relation between structure and properties comprehensively for all solids rather than for small classes of solids. This makes it an indispensable reference for all who make use of approximative methods for electronic-structure engineering, semiconductor development and materials science.
The problems at the ends of the chapters are an important aspect of the book. They clearly show that the calculations for systems and properties of genuine and current interest are actually quite elementary. Prefaces. Problems. Tables. Appendixes. Solid State Table of the Elements. Bibliography. Author and Subject Indexes.
"Will doubtless exert a lasting influence on the solid-state physics literature." -- Physics Today

C.G. Delivers Once Again -- Would Expect Nothing Less !!!
LOVE CHEM GUYS. these little wipes are awesome for quick cleaning. and to leave in the trunk of the car for UBER Driving. i love the VRP Hydro Spray - but you still need a rag to wipe it around. this solves that problem. just need 2 to clean the whole car !! and i have weather.tech floor mats front and back. these VPR Wipes make them look brand new in 5sec flat. and makes the black plastic car trim look sexy AF. NGL. but i dont like it on the leather seats. its a little too slippery for me. i like the OG Leather Conditioner for that. the cleaning wipes are really good too. can use them for any/every thing. one square will die out kinda quick, but it you use 2, it lasts a long azz time. (Clean Wipes AND VRP Wipes)

Alright
The interior cleaner are a little too dry for my liking- it feels like I need to use multiple wipes for the same area. I like the VPR for the plastics around the car (looks a little greasy), but I don’t think $20 is worth only 30 wipes each. I would rather buy the spray. Maybe I’m not using the wipes correctly but “shines like new” didn’t happened on the doors.

Excellent combo pack.
The cleaner & protectant and VRP protectant are my new go to cleaner and protectant wipes, I’ve been using another brand for 30+ years but it’s time to try other brands, I bought these to give it a try and it didn’t disappoint, it works very well, I work in very dusty environments trying to clean and protect the interior is an ongoing battle, so far this combo cleaner and protectant is doing its thing as expected, the cleaner wipes are not heavily soaked but with just the right amount without leaving any streaks and the same goes for the protectant wipes.
