This lecture is based on a recent paper, "On Landauer vs. Boltzmann and Full Band vs. Effective Mass Evaluation of Thermoelectric Transport Coefficients," by Changwook Jeong, a Ph.D. student at Purdue University. The paper is available at http://arxiv.org/abs/0909.5222

The author would also like to acknowledge several illuminating discussions with Prof. S. Datta.
