On Anderson's Nobel Prize

The article states as follows:

«1977: Philip W. Anderson shared the Nobel Prize in Physics for developing an improved understanding of the electronic structure of glass and magnetic materials.»

However, I believe there's an mistake here. Anderson studied what's called "spin glass". This are not glasses, but ruther a name for magnetic materials. Although these ideas led to similar descriptions in actual glasses, it is not what Anderson studied.
