The third edition of a classic book, Basic Ideas and Concepts in
Nuclear Physics sets out in a clear and consistent manner the
various elements of nuclear physics. Divided into four main parts:
the constituents and characteristics of the nucleus; nuclear
interactions, including the strong, weak and electromagnetic
forces; an introduction to nuclear structure; and recent
developments in nuclear structure research, the book delivers a
balanced account of both theoretical and experimental nuclear
physics. In addition to the numerous revisions and updates to the
previous edition to capture the developments in the subject over
the last five years, the book contains a new chapter on the
structure and stability of very light nuclei. As with the previous
edition the author retains a comprehensive set of problems and the
book contains an extensive and well-chosen set of diagrams. He
keeps the book up to date with recent experimental and theoretical
research, provides mathematical details as and when necessary, and
illustrates topics with box features containing examples of recent
experimental and theoretical research results.
