内容简介
　　During the last decade each of the authors has regularly taught a graduate or senior undergraduate course in statistical mechanics. During this same period， the renormalization group approach to critical phenomena， pioneered by K. G. Wilson， greatly altered our approach to condensed matter physics. Since its introduction in the context of phase transitions， the method has found application in many other areas of physics， such as many-body theory， chaos， the conductivity of disordered materials， and fractal structures. So pervasive is its influence that we feel that it now essential that graduate students be introduced at an early stage in their career to the concepts of scaling，
