Introductory Nuclear Physics 3rd Edition

I got a PhD in nuclear physics 50 years ago, but did not work in the field during the intervening time. A year ago I decided to catch up as much as I can to at least learn what has happened in nuclear and particle physics while I was away. A modern text on these topics recommended this introductory nuclear physics book. I have not been disappointed.

Amazon surprised me when I found this book new for over half of what a used one cost at the campus book store. This book has been in use since the 1980's, and as such I didn't expect to find a new one at such a great cost.Thank you Amazon for helping me to stretch my child's education dollars!!!!

This text was exactly as described. This text is used in many universities in North America. I had an course outline for the course the material covered and the text appeared to cover all learning objectives by looking at the table of contents. Unfortunately my class was cancelled due to lack of participants at enrollment.

Amazon book for the physics enthusiast and for graduate level students . A must have if you love advance physics .

Pretty good conditions

This book has been very helpful, and as someone researching nuclear physics in graduate school, I have found this as a necessity. I suggest this book to anyone needing resources in nuclear.

Great price, exceptional condition, decent book.

Just finished a nuclear physics course where we used Krane and got to chapter 11. Overall it is a very good book and detailed. My biggest problem was with answering some of the questions because often for the rate that the course was going, I would spend to much time trying to determine what the question was asking or wanting. I also dislike that there is no way to check any of your answers other than through your professor. However, great book for the most part, very detailed if not to detailed at some point. It even gives a little quick review of the history in each chapter.
