Frontiers of Physics: Proceedings of the Landau Memorial Conference, Tel Aviv, Israel, 6-10 June 1988

To commemorate the eightieth birthday of Lev\D\Landau, Tel Aviv hosted an International Conference in his honour in June 1988. Experts from all over the world have summarised the present state of the many fields of physics to which Landau made seminal contributions and historians of physics have assessed Landau's unique contribution to the science. New insights on the development of physics in the Soviet Union in the 1930s and '40s, are included and brought up to date with reviews of numerous fields of physics, including elementary particle physics, astrophysics and condensed matter. Contributions from many who knew and worked with Landau give an important insight into the man's life and work, including many aspects previously unknown and unpublished.Ne'Eman, Yuval is the author of 'Frontiers of Physics: Proceedings of the Landau Memorial Conference, Tel Aviv, Israel, 6-10 June 1988', published 1990 under ISBN 9780080369396 and ISBN 0080369391.
