For hundreds of years, models of magnetism have been pivotal in the
understanding and advancement of science and technology, from the
Earth's interpretation as a magnetic dipole to quantum mechanics,
statistical physics, and modern nanotechnology. This book is the
first to envision the field of magnetism in its entirety. It
complements a rich literature on specific models of magnetism and
provides an introduction to simple models, including some simple
limits of complicated models. The book is written in an easily
accessible style, with a limited amount of mathematics, and covers
a wide range of quantum-mechanical, finite-temperature,
micromagnetic and dynamical models. It deals not only with basic
magnetic quantities, such as moment, Curie temperature, anisotropy,
and coercivity, but also with modern areas such as nanomagnetism
and spintronics, and with 'exotic' themes, as exemplified by the
polymer analogy of magnetic phase transitions. Throughout the book,
a sharp line is drawn between simple and simplistic models, and
much space is devoted to discuss the merits and failures of the
individual model approaches.
