Covering the basics of this field, the text unsurprisingly has much content that is covered in other, well-established books, like Ashcroft and Mermin or Kittel. But perhaps what most distinguishes Hamaguchi's effort are the sections on superlattices and the quantum Hall effect. These are omitted from those other books, if only because when they were written, the phenomena had not been invented or discovered. But because of the importance of these subjects, it is good to have them here, in an introductory text. Hamaguchi also gives a comprehensive listing of the different types of scattering that happen in a semiconductor. But the brevity of space devoted to each really means this is little more than a definition of terms.
