Several chapters have been updated relative to the classic 1989 edition. Moreover, there are now three entirely new chapters on effects of anisotropy and heterogeneity, on fixed connectivity membranes and on triangulated surface models of fluctuating me 606 $aSurfaces (Physics)$xStatistical methods 606 $aMembranes (Technology)$xStatistical methods 606 $aInterfaces (Physical sciences)$xStatistical methods 606 $aStatistical mechanics 615 0$aSurfaces (Physics)$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aMembranes (Technology)$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aInterfaces (Physical sciences)$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aStatistical mechanics. 676 $a530.4/17 676 $a530.427 676 $a530/.138 686 $a33.26$2bcl 700 $aNelson$b David R.$f1951-$01552743 701 $aNelson$b David R.$f1951-$01552743 701 $aPiran$b Tsvi$f1949-$053278 701 $aWeingerg$b S$01552744 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783223303321 996 $aStatistical mechanics of membranes and surfaces$93812808 997 $aUNINA
