The second part of Statistical Physics deals with the quantum theory of the condensed state of matter; it gives a detailed exposition of Landau's theory of Bose and Fermi quantum liquids. The Green's function approach is developed systematically and the convenience of calculating Green's functions by the diagram technique is illustrated by many examples. This volume is essentially an entirely new book, based on the large amount of new material which has become available in statistical physics in the last twenty years
