Summary: "This book is written as a senior undergraduate and graduate textbook of theoretical plasma physics; topics include Boltzmann equation, two-fluid equations, magnetohydrodynamics, Vlasov-Maxwell Plasma, absolute and convective instabilities, fundamental kinetic theory, Lenard-Balescu equation, electric fluctuation, plasma electrodynamics and causality, nonlinear waves, inverse scattering method, surface waves, and dusty plasma. It also includes special topics like parametric instabilities and kinetic theory of surface waves in a plasma slab. The development of theory is presented through gentle mathematical steps through easy and straightforward demonstration. The readers will be able to appreciate the beauty of mathematical analysis in connection with theoretical plasma physics."-- Publisher's website.
