9782881247415: Fields Strings And Quantum Gra

Synopsis

One of the fundamental problems facing theoretical physics is the synthesis of string theory, quantum gravity, and the conventional field theory. Recent developments in string theory make it possible to have a finite formulation of quantum gravity. Yet, it is still unclear how this beautiful edifice can be tested experimentally. This volume contains lectures, given by some of the world's foremost experts, which provide a comprehensive examination of the present status of, and form the basis for future progress in, this exciting field.
