Summary:
This book introduces QFT for readers with no prior knowledge of the
subject. It is meant to be a textbook for advanced undergraduate or
beginning postgraduate students. The book discusses quantization of
fields, S-matrix theory, Feynman diagrams, calculation of decay rates
and cross sections, renormalization, symmetries and symmetry
breaking. Some background material on classical field theory and
group theory, needed for the exposition, are also presented in the
book. Detailed calculations of weak and electromagnetic processes are
included. There are many exercise problems to help the students,
instructors and beginning researchers in the field. The second
edition improves upon some notations and explanations, and includes
answers to selected exercises.
