Based on university lectures given by the author, this volume provides a detailed technical treatment of quantum field theory that is particularly useful for students; it begins with the quantization of the most important free fields, the scalar, the spin-1\/2 and the photon fields, and is then followed by a detailed account of symmetry properties, including a discussion on global and local symmetries and the spontaneous breaking of symmetries. Perturbation theory, one-loop effects for quantum electrodynamics, and renormalization properties are also covered. In this second edition new chapters have been introduced with a general description of path integral quantization both on quantum mechanics and in quantum field theory, with a particular attention to the gauge fields. The path integral quantization of Fermi fields is also discussed.","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047341654359,"sku":"9789813146662","price":81.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9789813146662.jpg?v=1750971196","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/introduction-to-quantum-field-theory-9789813146662","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
