Language Notes Text: English (translation) Original Language: German
Characteristic of Schwabl’s work, this volume features a compelling mathematical presentation in which all intermediate steps are derived and where numerous examples for application and exercises help the reader to gain a thorough working knowledge of the subject. New material has been added to this third edition.. The treatment of relativistic wave equations and their symmetries and the fundamentals of quantum field theory lay the foundations for advanced studies in solid-state physics, nuclear and elementary particle physics
Clarity of Physical And Mathematical Thought G. A. Schoenagel Caveat: My review pertains to the first (1999) edition (at 397 Pages).After spending much time with Sakurai's book of the same title (and not finding my voice there) it is a pleasure to recommend this book.Structured as it is into three sprawling parts: (1) Formalism of Second Quantization, (2) Klein Gordon and Dirac Equations,(3) Quantization of Radiation Fields and Quantum Electrodynamics. (Each part followed by a separate Bibliography).Structure. A careful, lucid exposition Harvey S. Picker As I sort through my numerous books on advanced quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, I find myself returning to Schwabl time and time again. As with my other books, I ask myself whether this is a book worth keeping. Each time, the answer is a resounding "yes!", which is not the case for most of my books on these topics. Why? Invariably, when I seek an explanation that is clearer than one given elsewhere, Schwabl provides it. I could hardly a. Tim said A nice review of the material, but avoid the Kindle version. I agree with the first reviewer, this is a good overview book.However, the Kindle version has terrible formating for the math equations (a random example: equation 1.1.9 is completely unreadable). I have the latest DX, so this is not a matter of reading a large-formated text on a smaller Kindle. It is like reading a very bad xerox-copy from the early 1980s. Trying to read through the book ends up costing a lot of time guessing what various symbols
