Kritik
"In my opinion, the book is excellent: it is well structured, well focused on an interesting topic, and it is clearly developed. It combines mathematical rigor with deeply physical motivations, many of them of much current interest in material sciences or in the fundamentals of thermodynamics. The proposals of the author seem to be a worthwhile contribution to a mathematically sound and physically fruitful description of many intresting phenomena."

"By its very nature and subject matter the book will have a specialized audience. To those happy few this unique book is warmly recommended as it will certainly initiate discussions and further extensions."(Mathematical Reviews, Maugin, Gérard A.)mehr
