- Comments: This book, with its worn spine, annotated pages, and rich history, is a prime example of how second-hand literature can offer more than just a story.

Despite its imperfections, or perhaps because of them, this book stands as a valuable and meaningful addition to any reader's collection.

AUTHOR
SUMMARY
This is the first quantitative treatment of elementary particle theory that is accessible to undergraduates. Using a lively, informal writing style, the author strikes a balance between quantitative rigor and intuitive understanding. The first chapter provides a detailed historical introduction to the subject. Subsequent chapters offer a consistent and modern presentation, covering the quark model, Feynman diagrams, quantum electrodynamics, and gauge theories. A clear introduction to the Feynman rules, using a simple model, helps readers learn the calculational techniques without the complications of spin. And an accessible treatment of QED shows how to evaluate tree-level diagrams. Contains an abundance of worked examples and many end-of-chapter problems.Griffiths, David F. is the author of 'Introduction to Elementary Particles' with ISBN 9780471603863 and ISBN 0471603864.
