About this title

Review

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This is the second edition of the very successful book on quantum chromodynamics (QCD), which is part of an extensive series of textbooks by Greiner and co-authors. The second edtion is clearly an advance on the first and continues to be a very useful advanced textbook." (C.A Hurst, Mathematical Reviews, 2003 k)

"This book is a thorough introduction to the perturbative and nonperturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) for advanced level graduate students in theoretical physics and scientists in high energy physics. It contains many worked-out exercises . In conclusion, this book constitutes an excellent theoretical reference book, reflecting very well the present situation and problems in the field ." (Laurent Favart, Physicalia, Vol. 25 (4), 2003)
