   • 2010, Michael P. Marder, Condensed Matter Physics, 2nd edition, John Wiley & Sons, page xix:

     The topics that can today be presented only within a distressing cloud of uncertainty are precisely the ones most likely to remain central to the development of condensed matter physics.

   • 2015, Eduardo Fradkin, Field Theories of Condensed Matter Physics, Cambridge University Press, page 63:

     Many problems in condensed matter physics can be described in terms of a Hamiltonian that is a sum of two terms, ${\displaystyle H=H^{*}+H'}$.
