ResumoLANDAU requires no introduction. He is too well known, although not quite as well understood. Several generations of theoretical physicists learned their trade by struggling through the 10 volumes of his famous Course of Theoretical Physics – known colloquially as Landau and Lifshitz – which Landau supervised, although he did not write a single word. Several dozen physicists – some absolutely first-class – continued to identify themselves as members of the Landau school long after they became scientists in their own right.
