An Introduction to Relativistic Quantum Field Theory - (Dover Books on Physics) by Silvan S Schweber (Paperback)

This comprehensive guide to modern quantum field theory is a must-read for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students looking to gain a deep understanding of this complex subject.

With its systematic, self-contained approach, it covers all the important topics in the field, including the one-particle relativistic wave equations, second-quantized description of n particles, symmetry restrictions on Lagrangians, conservation laws, and much more.

The book also includes a detailed examination of simple models of field theories, as well as an exploration of the problematic aspects of quantized field theories.

Additionally, it covers the Feynman-Dyson perturbation treatment of relativistic field theories, renormalization theory, and the formulation of field theory in the Heisenberg picture.

The book concludes with an account of the axiomatic formulation of field theory and an introduction to dispersion theoretic methods.

With its thorough coverage of all aspects of quantum field theory, this text is an essential resource for anyone looking to master this important subject.
