DESCRIPTION:
1 & 2 Set 0-521-58555-4 Hb ISBN (2000) Vol.3 0-521-66000-9 HB ISBN (2000) Vols. The development is fresh and logical throughout, with each step carefully motivated by what has preceded. The presentation of modern mathematical methods is interwoven with accounts of applications in both elementary particle and condensed matter physics. The three volumes contain much original material, and are enhanced with examples and insights drawn from the author's experience as a leader of elementary particle research. The first volume introduces the foundations of quantum field theory, the second volume examines modern applications, and finally, the third volume presents supersymmetry, an area of theoretical physics likely to be at the center of progress in the physics of elementary particles and gravitation. l-3 Set 0-521-78082-9.

Available for the first time in paperback, The Quantum Theory of Fields is a self-contained, comprehensive, and up-to-date introduction to quantum field theory from Nobel Laureate Steven Weinberg
"The quantum theory of fields" according to Amazon Customer. It is an excellent book. Very well it is written, both its historical part as its fundamental aspects. These volumes meet my expectations. Thank you very much to the author for the excellent content.. Classic David Coons This will certainly be a classic reference book. However, it focuses on the underlying formalism. So it is not going to be overly useful as an education tool, unless you are looking into the fundamentals which support the theory..

Full of valuable insights, his treatise is sure to become a classic." Nature"Weinberg's Modern Applications goes to the boundaries of our present understanding of the field theory. "Provides an impressively lucid and thorough presentation of the subject from this modern viewpointWeinberg manages to present difficult topics with richness of meaning and marvellous clarity. It is unmatched by any other book on quantum field theory for its depth, generality and definitive character, and it will be an essential reference for serious students and researchers in elementary particle physics." Physics Today"Steven Weinberg, one of the greatest theoreticians in the past 50 years, has written a magisterial, no-holds-barred account of the theory in all its glorya definitive text for succeeding generations." New Scientist"without doubt goes far beyond the ambition of providing a quick calculational receipe book.The Quantum Theory of Fields is a serious scholarly attempt to lift "Life a litt
