Abstract

We motivate the interest in Fractional quantum Hall physics. Furthermore, we present the organization of this book and introduce the topics covered.

This work contains many things which are new and interesting. Unfortunately, everything that is new is not interesting, and everything which is interesting, is not new.

Lev Landau, not in reference to this book
