- Synopsis
- A fully updated edition of the classic text by acclaimed physicist A. ZeeSince it was first published, Quantum Field Theory in a Nutshell has quickly established itself as the most accessible and comprehensive introduction to this profound and deeply fascinating area of theoretical physics. Now in this fully revised and expanded edition, A. Zee covers the latest advances while providing a solid conceptual foundation for students to build on, making this the most up-to-date and modern textbook on quantum field theory available.This expanded edition features several additional chapters, as well as an entirely new section describing recent developments in quantum field theory such as gravitational waves, the helicity spinor formalism, on-shell gluon scattering, recursion relations for amplitudes with complex momenta, and the hidden connection between Yang-Mills theory and Einstein gravity. Zee also provides added exercises, explanations, and examples, as well as detailed appendices, solutions to selected exercises, and suggestions for further reading.The most accessible and comprehensive introductory textbook availableFeatures a fully revised, updated, and expanded textCovers the latest exciting advances in the fieldIncludes new exercisesOffers a one-of-a-kind resource for students and researchers Leading universities that have adopted this book include:Arizona State UniversityBoston UniversityBrandeis UniversityBrown UniversityCalifornia Institute of TechnologyCarnegie MellonCollege of William & MaryCornellHarvard UniversityMassachusetts Institute of TechnologyNorthwestern UniversityOhio State UniversityPrinceton UniversityPurdue University - Main CampusRensselaer Polytechnic InstituteRutgers University - New BrunswickStanford UniversityUniversity of California - BerkeleyUniversity of Central FloridaUniversity of ChicagoUniversity of MichiganUniversity of MontrealUniversity of Notre DameVanderbilt UniversityVirginia Tech University
