From Special Relativity to Feynman Diagrams: A Course of Theoretical Particle Physics for Beginners - Softcover
Book 11 of 68: UNITEXT for Physics
Synopsis
From the reviews:
"This textbook covers, step-by-step, important topics in special relativity, relativistic dynamics, the equivalence principle and the Einstein equation ... interaction and the S-matrix, divergent diagrams and renormalization. ... They are all explained in a simple but mathematically rigorous way, and so this textbook provides a thorough grounding for students planning to enter research in theoretical physics. The goal here is to formulate the main contemporary concepts for a one-year course." (Gert Roepstorff, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1238, 2012)
"The aim of this textbook is to provide a path from classical, relativistic mechanics to QED. ... the book provides an insightful discussion of classical physics ... . It is very useful for lecturers who look for a bit of extra insight and material for a course on classical mechanics, and especially special relativity. It is also a great addition for curious students who feel somewhat unsatisfied with standard texts on these topics." (Axel Maas, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2013)
