Providing a broad review of many techniques and their application to condensed matter systems, this book begins with a review of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, before moving onto real and imaginary time path integrals and the ...

This book provides an easily accessible introduction to quantum field theory via Feynman rules and calculations in particle physics. Written as a graduate textbook, many diagrams, exercises and examples are included.

This primer is aimed at elevating graduate students of condensed matter theory to a level where they can engage in independent research.

In this extraordinary book, Feynman provides a lively and accessible introduction to QED, or quantum electrodynamics, an area of quantum field theory that describes the interactions of light with charged particles.

The rest of his narrative comprises individual biographies of the four physicists, discussions of their major contributions, and the story of the scientific community in which they worked"--Publisher's description.

An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory is a textbook intended for the graduate physics course covering relativistic quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, and Feynman diagrams.

An overview of the conceptual and historical foundations of fundamental field theories, including their underlying issues, logic and dynamics.

'Feynman's style inspired a generation of scientists. This volume remains the best record I know of his exhilarating vision' Paul Davies
