Reviews
  • 'The reader will find a concise review of diagrammatic pertubation theory, path-integral quantization, group theory, and renormalization theory. The more advanced concepts - gauge symmetry, chiral symmetry breaking, the Higgs mechanism, asymptotic freedom and the renormalization group - are treated in greater detail. The exposition of these subjects is judiciously combined with applications to the standard theory in a way that brings life to what otherwise might be dull formalism. [...] it will remain, for a long time to come, an excellent introduction to the comprehensive gauge theory of the electroweak and strong interactions.' - David Goss, Physics Today
