Wong is a theoretical physicist educated at UCLA and Harvard. He has worked in Copenhagen, Princeton, Oxford, and Saclay (near Paris). He has been at UCLA since 1969. He was a Sloan research Fellow, and is a fellow of the American Physical Society. His main interest is in theoretical physics.
This book gathers together in one place both standard and advanced topics on mathematical methods in physics. As such, it will be of use to both researchers and students in theoretical physics, as well as university-level lecturers who may wish to use it as a textbook. The second edition expands on the set of problems of the first edition, and includes new material on special relativity and chaos. It covers a broad spectrum of topics that will be of enormous use to theoretical physicists. * Richard J. Szabo, Heriot-Watt University * Overall this is a first to second year undergraduate book that covers an unusual quantity of material. The book contains many problems to assist with understanding the contents. I would recommend this book to all undergraduates with an interest in mathematical physics, mathematics or physics. * John Bartlett, Insitute of Mathematics Reviews *
