Table of ContentsReviewsIt's a fine text, and I use it with my graduate students as a tutorial text in my laboratory research. -- Professor Christopher Watts This is a revised and extended version of a book which has already proved its value as an advanced text at postgraduate level. It contains a careful account of many of the properties of waves using the various possible levls of approach, and a good selection of graphs and surface plots which are a great help to the reader in visualising the behaviour of wave dispersion relations ... Any student who masters the material in this book and works through the problems it contains will have a very solid grounding in the theory of wave propagation. Research workers in the field will find it to be a comprehensive source of information on waves, including a number of topics which have only been found in research papers until now. I think this is a very welcome addition to the literature which will be a valuable resource for teachers and researchers ... Swanson's book is certainly worth a place beside Stix on the bookshelves of anyone who needs to know about plasma waves. -- R A Cairns in Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion It's a fine text, and I use it with my graduate students as a tutorial text in my laboratory research. - Professor Christopher Watts This is a revised and extended version of a book that has already proved its value as an advanced text at the postgraduate level.
