This mathematical physics oriented treatise on classical equilibrium and near-equilibrium statistical mechanics of continuum systems, at various – microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic scales – addresses a large research area whose development was dominated by the Moscow school of (Dobrushin, Sinai, Pirogov). The author takes an effort to make accessible a variety of problems and mathematical techniques involved in describing how a continuum description emerges from mesoscopic and microscopic models. Technically that refers to large scale phenomena in statistical mechanics and their mathematical formulations in terms of thermodynamic and hydrodynamic limits. (Zentralblatt)
