New Coffee Library


Welcome to the NEW COFFEE LIBRARY of the Cavendish Laboratory's Theory of Condensed Matter group.

This library was created in September 1999 to hold books about art, literature, history, and all the rest of the things that physicists aren't supposed to read about. It is not intended that the books should be removed from the coffee area for long periods, but if you wish then email Mike Towler (mdt26 at cam.ac.uk) and he will update this table. Please return the book as soon as you have finished with it (preferably within a week). Thanks to the following people for donating money or books: Mike Payne, Peter Littlewood, Brian Josephson, Volker Heine, Guna Rajagopal, Martin Rieger, Ben Simons, Behnam Farid, Igor Smolyarenko, Matthew Probert, Greg McMullan, Andrew Porter, Matt Segall, Peter Haynes, Yong Mao, Goetz Kuras, Carla Molteni, Mike Towler, Michel Côté, Philippe Monthoux, Yoonseok Lee, Phil Hasnip, Andrew Green, Yu Shi, Michael Rutter, Tom Fink, Matthew Dodgson, Gerald Pereira, Sian Joyce, Yen Lee Loh, Ian Graham.
