This respected high-level text, aimed at professionals and students working on the theory of solids, is particularly valuable for its application of group theory to solid state and molecular physics. The author -- Distinguished Professor of Physics at City College of New York, widely known for his work in optics, lasers, and solid-state physics -- devotes the first three chapters to a distillation of the most relevant ideas and theorems of group theory (at the group point level) and then leads readers directly into group theory applications.Professor Lax provides examples in optical absorption selection rules, spin-orbit coupling, and crystal field theory, plus a complete demonstration of projection techniques. He also develops short-cut and invariant methods for solving molecular vibration problems and for determining the form of crystal tensors; develops the translational properties of crystals, including Bravais lattices and space groups; and explains relevant applications to electron phonon scattering, optical absorption selection rules, electronic energy bands, electron dynamics, and effective Hamiltonians. To illustrate several of these topics, and to show the relation between the microscopic and macroscopic views of elasticity, the author presents a complete study of the diamond structure.
Among the unique features of this volume are its use of subgroup techniques, its consideration of the influence of time reversal on selection rules, its use of shell theorems and invariance techniques to construct the form of tensors, and its use of broken symmetry to relate the symmetry of valence and molecular orbitals to the symmetry of electron molecular wave functions. The book also contains more than 200 carefully selected problems.

Crisp, bright, natural colors. Excellent monitor for the cost.
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
Excellent monitor. Haven't tried the internal speakers since I use amplified speakers and most often a headset through them. So probably an option I may never use anyway, but may test them out just to see how good they are...or how bad.😂
Color is crisp and clear and gave me the screen resolution I needed 1920x1080. Text is clear and legible, graphics are as good as your graphics card will allow, so if you're not using a high end graphics card don't expect this monitor to improve motherboard built-in graphics or older low end graphic cards, that's not the monitors fault, it's your MB or GC that's the problem.
Overall I'm very happy with this monitor and been well worth the price I paid for.
Yes, I'd recommend this monitor.

Awesome as a Computer Monitor—Crisp, Sleek, and Perfect for Daily Use!
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
I'm currently using the Philips 24-inch Frameless Full HD Monitor (1920 x 1080) as my primary computer display, and I must say, it has truly exceeded my expectations. The frameless design lends an elegant, modern aesthetic that seamlessly integrates into any workspace. It not only enhances the visual appeal of my setup but also creates the illusion of a larger screen, all while conserving valuable desk space.
In terms of performance, the picture quality is exceptional. Text appears remarkably sharp, and colors are vibrant and lifelike, which greatly enhances my viewing experience. I’ve spent several hours in front of this monitor, whether working on projects, enjoying movies, or juggling multiple applications, and I’ve found that it minimizes eye strain—something I greatly appreciate during long days of use.
Considering the price point, this monitor truly stands out in both quality and design. If you’re in the market for a reliable and stylish monitor that performs exceptionally well for everyday computer tasks, I wholeheartedly recommend this Philips model as a fantastic choice. Excellent response time.

Great Monitor Great Price.
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
Great Monitor for the price. It has a vibrate color and very easy to set up. This replaced my old worn out Monitor.
The only downside is you have to look hard in the user manual to find it in English. it's in several several languages.
over all you cain't beat it for the price.

Excellent monitor!!! Be aware that it does not have internal speakers.
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
Beautiful image. This monitor is excellent and I am very happy with it.
However, you should be aware that it does not have any internal speakers and it does not have any audio input. It does have audio output for external speakers or headphones. For me, this was not a problem since I use a USB external speaker for better clarity.
The lack of internal speakers was a surprise to me, but I suppose since the lack of speakers mentioned in the product description should have tipped me off.
