Beschreibung

The third edition of this best-selling text continues to provide an accessible overview of the fundamental ideas underpinning our understanding of theoretical physics. The basic structure of each theory is explained in explicit mathematical detail with emphasis on conceptual understanding rather than on the technical details of specialized applications. Suitable for undergraduate and graduate courses, this new edition includes updates and advancements in string theory and quantum gravity. A supplementary website provides ancillary material and side issues to create a platform for further research and classroom discussion.
