Présentation de l'éditeur :
Quantum field thory is a fundamental branch of theoretical physics, which in the last 20 years, has led to spectacular progress in our understanding of phase transitions and elementary particle physics. This textbook emphasizes the underlying unity of the concepts and methods used in both domains, and presents in clear language topics such as the pertubative expansion, Feynman diagrams, renormalization, and the renormalization group. It contains detailed applications of critical phenomena to condensed matter physics, such as the calculation of critical exponents and a discussion of the XY model. Applications to particle physics include quantum electrodynamics and chromodynamics, electroweak interactions, and lattice gauge theories. The book is based on courses given over several years on statistical mechanics and field theory, and is written at graduate level. It attempts to guide the reader through a somewhat difficult and sometimes intricate subject. Further it is intended to lead the student up to the level of more advanced textbooks and research articles. A large number of problems are given to measure the reader's understanding.
Revue de presse :
'The book is clearly written and should be of value to honours students in physics and mathematics. A useful feature is the large number of problems and worked examples.' Aslib Book Guide, Vol. 57. No. 10, October 1992
'Michel Le Bellac's book surveys the whole field, but is particuarly good on the physics of condensed matter. It is written in a very clear way. The book is well planned, carefully written and pedagogically sound.' Times Higher Education Supplement
