Reviews
From the reviews:
“It builds stone by stone a remarkable construction, revealing at each step a new piece of the fascinating picture of mean-field spin glass models. … Enlightening explanations, written with strong commitment, help the reader to grasp the general line of thought before entering into the computations … . With its depth and proficiency of important techniques, this book opens new perspectives on probability theory and the statistical mechanics of disordered systems. It will be a source of inspiration for generations of mathematicians.” (Francis Comets, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2012 c)Authors and Affiliations
