About this title

Synopsis

Quantum Field Theory: A Modern Introduction is undoubtedly the standard setting textbook in this field; as it is the only up-to-date introductory textbook to cover the `modern' approach to quantum field theory (QFT).

In this textbook, Michio Kaku, goes far beyond existing texts, and presents material vital to the modern approach to QFT. Topics such as critical phenomena, lattice gauge theory, supersymmetry, quantum gravity, supergravity, and superstrings are all included in this textbook and are not included in other textbooks on QFT.

There are also over 260 exercises included within the text.

Review

Kaku rolls up his sleeves and gets down to work .. whisking us right throught to inflation and superstrings... provides a comprehensive selection of exercises at the end of every chapter. New Scientist
