"Should be widely read by practicing physicists, chemists and materials scientists." — Philosophical Magazine
In this comprehensive and innovative text, Professor Harrison (Stanford University) offers a basic understanding of the electronic structure of covalent and ionic solids, simple metals, transition metals, and their compounds. The book illuminates the relationships of the electronic structures of these materials and shows how to calculate dielectric, conducting, and bonding properties for each. Also described are various methods of approximating electronic structure, providing insight and even quantitative results from the comparisons. Dr. Harrison has also included an especially helpful "Solid State Table of the Elements" that provides all the parameters needed to estimate almost any property of any solid, with a hand-held calculator, using the techniques developed in the book.
Designed for graduate or advanced undergraduate students who have completed an undergraduate course in quantum mechanics or atomic and modern physics, the text treats the relation between structure and properties comprehensively for all solids rather than for small classes of solids. This makes it an indispensable reference for all who make use of approximative methods for electronic-structure engineering, semiconductor development and materials science.
The problems at the ends of the chapters are an important aspect of the book. They clearly show that the calculations for systems and properties of genuine and current interest are actually quite elementary. Prefaces. Problems. Tables. Appendixes. Solid State Table of the Elements. Bibliography. Author and Subject Indexes.

本书从物理的角度对化学键电子结构进行了分析讨论，材料和化学类的科研人员和学生应该认真读一读
Book was in very good shape. Author does decent job of balancing the "why" and the "how". Math is summarized rather than illuminating.
Just read the first chapter, feel like this is the book I want, for a physics graduate student. Well explained.
If you are studying the solid state physics, it is a necessary book for you. It covers various properties of almost all kinds of solid state materials and shows pretty new experimental data from reliable sources. This book also starts with a clear introduction in each chapter so that even for a beginner, it is easy to read. This book will be a good reference book for you to find out the definition of terminologies in this field. Personally, I use this book as a referece frequently.
This book is definitely not a book you can read through quickly but a book where you find out information through your life.
If you are a scientist and interested in solid state physics like semiconductor or metal, this is also a good book to get a good guide and introduction.
The idea behind this book is that a beginning graduate student can do approximate electronic structure calculations, solving nothing more than the quadratic equation, with the approximations provided. The approximate models are said to aid understanding and train intuition. It's a nice idea, but given the easy accessibility to electronic structure codes and powerful computers these days, it's antiquated: ones first approach would instead be to calculate! Worse, the pedagogical style in the book is such that it doesn't really train intuition either. I spent a lot of time trying to understand this book and I can't say that my effort was rewarded. Positive features: scope, historical interest, and low price from Dover.
This book has no parallel in the literature of theoretical materials science. The information contained in the book allows first principle calculations of properties of important technological materials like perovskite oxides, semiconductors, etc. I would suggest the reader to consult the papers by R. Haydock and others in Solid State Physics, vol.35 of 1980 to
complemment the methods presented in the book.
