Description

Book Synopsis
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.

Trade Review
"...a masterful introduction to quantum field theory and its application to elementary particle physics through Feynman diagrams. The approach is constructive rather than deductive, and the book offers many fine insights into the physics content of results that may be thought of as purely mathematical." Ernest Ma and Jose Wudka, Physics Today
"...would be a useful and solid starting point for a novice field theorist..." R. Delbourgo, Mathematical Reviews

Table of Contents
Introduction; 1. Lorentz and Poincaré invariance; 2. Relativistic quantum mechanics of free particles; 3. Interacting fields; 4. Particles with spin; 5. Explorations; 6. Renormalization; 7. Massive and massless vector fields; 8. Unitarity; Appendices.
