Negative Positive
Title: Ugh.
Review: We are using Huang in Physics 262 (Statistical Physics). The whole class is utterly lost. The derivation of the Boltzmann transport equation is just painful. The derivation of the Boltzmann distribution is even more painful. The way I know something is wrong with this book: we all read the chapter quite a few times and then looked at the homework problems at the back of the chapter, which are standard enough, and had NO CLUE how to approach them. Now, I am guessing that all fifty or so of us are reasonably intelligent, so the problem must not be with us....
Is the review positive or negative?
