Over the course of nearly half a century Sam Edwards has led the field of condensed matter physics into new directions ranging from the electronic and statistical properties of disordered materials to the mechanical properties of granular materials. Along the way he has provided seminal contributions to fluid mechanics polymer science surface science and statistical mechanics. This volume celebrates the immense scope of his influence by presenting a collection of original articles by recognized leaders in theoretical physics including two Nobel Laureates and a Fields Medalist which describe the genesis evolution and future prospects of the various sub-fields of condensed matter theory along with reprints of a selection of Edwards' seminal papers that helped give birth to the subject. 'Stealing the Gold' Edwards' favourite caricature of the relationship between theoretical physicists and Nature will be of singular interest to graduate students looking for an overview of some of the most exciting areas of theoretical physics as well as to researchers in condensed matter physics looking for a comprehensive broad and uniquely incisive snapshot of their subject at the dawn of the 21st century.
