Scattering Theory: The Quantum Theory of Nonrelativistic Collisions (Dover Books on Engineering)

Scattering theory is a notoriously difficult area in quantum mechanics. After looking several classics, I borrowed a copy of this book, then out of print, and found immediately it was at the right level. The exposition is always to the point, never overloaded with side issues or minor details, yet very clear and precise, a pleasure to read. It leaves the nice feeling of understanding exactly everything the author explains. So I immediately photocopied the book, and I am very pleased of it being back in print thanks to Dover, and got already a new copy. Despite the book being over 30 years old, the presentation is still fresh, the hallmark of a classic. The only complain, is that me too would like more topics, and the coverage of some important progress, which is apparently available only in mathematical physics text, pretty hard for the average physicist. But this calls for a second volume, nothing to be changed on the present one.
