The reader will master London theory and the Pippard equations, and go on to understand type I and type II superconductors (their thermodynamics, magnetic properties, vortex dynamics, current transport...), Cooper pairs and the results of BCS theory. By studying coherence and flux quantization he or she will be lead to the Josephson effect which, with the SQUID, is a good example of the applications. The reader can make up for any gaps in his knowledge with the use of the appendices, follow the logic behind each model, and assimilate completely the underlying concepts. Approximately 250 illustrations help in developing a thorough understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume is aimed towards masters and doctoral students, as well as advanced undergraduates, teachers and researchers at all levels coming from a broad range of subjects (chemistry, physics, mechanical and electrical engineering, materials science...). Engineers working in industry will have a useful introduction to other more applied or specialized material.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhilippe Mangin\u003c\/b\u003e is emeritus professor of physics at \u003ci\u003eMines Nancy Graduate School of Science, Engineering and Management\u003c\/i\u003e of the University of Lorraine, and researcher at the \u003ci\u003eJean Lamour Institute\u003c\/i\u003e in France.
