In this systematic introduction to Ginzberg-Landau Theory, both common and topological excitations are considered on the same footing (including their thermodynamics and dynamical phenomena). This book is an important reference for researchers working in condensed matter physics and an advanced textbook graduate students.

Baruch Rosenstein is a professor at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University at Hsinchu, Taiwan (ROC). His scientific interests in field theory and critical phenomena have gradually shifted toward condensed matter physics during postdoctoral experience at the University of Texas (Austin) and the University of British Columbia.
