[PDF] Symmetry and Condensed Matter Physics: A Computational Approach M. El-Batanouny, F. Wooten

This is an excellent book on group theory and symmetry and their applications to crystallography and condensed matter physics. It also includes Onsager’s reciprocity relations and quasicrystals. There is also a chapter on Landau’s theory of phase transitions. Sample Mathematica programs are interspersed throughout the book. The detailed derivations and clear explanations are geared towards helping students learn the subject.
