I have not received the printed book yet, but I have read the lecture notes that this book was largely based on. It was very nicely written, and I have learned a lot of condensed matter field theoretical techniques from it.Another reason I would love this book is that it is not written in a rush -- it has evolved for a while. First, this means that it has very few typo/misprints, which is a huge plus for newcomers to this field. Second, this means it can include a lot of interesting new materials. I saw in the content that compared with the lecture notes preceding the book, the author has added a new chapter on topological Kondo insulators, which I can't wait to read.
more than expected
