This textbook, written by Soshin Chikazumi, focuses on the physical aspects of ferromagnetism. It is intended for students and researchers who seek a deep understanding without extensive prior knowledge of quantum mechanics. The emphasis is on clearly explaining physical concepts.
The book provides a broad overview of magnetic phenomena, with special attention to both theoretical foundations and practical applications such as soft and hard magnetic materials and magnetic memory. This revised edition is structured in a clear and accessible way and includes recent developments in the field.
