Focusing on knot theory within a quantum-statistical framework, this book explores knot and link invariants as generalized amplitudes in physical processes. It adopts a combinatorial approach, facilitating access to algebra, combinatorial topology, and related physical concepts. The text is structured into two parts: the first offers a foundational course on knots and physics, while the second presents lectures on diverse topics, including frictional properties and connections to dynamical systems. The new edition expands on these themes with additional articles, including Khovanov Homology.
