Symmetry in Physics: Principles and Simple Applications Volume 1

Originally published in 1979, this successful text is now available in a convenient paperback edition. Volume 1 develops the fundamental role of symmetry and applies it to to wide range of problems in classical and quantum physics. Volume 2 moves on to some more difficult applications and to a more general study of the symmetric and unitary groups. The text includes worked examples and a selection of problems with solutions.P.G.
