內容提要

這是華裔物理學傢徐一鴻教授的又一本關於物理學的專著。量子場論是物理學之大成，它融閤瞭狹義相對論和量子力學，是物理學精義的集中體現，也是物理學艱深的部分之一。許多量子場論的教程，寫的晦澀難懂。冗長復雜的數學公式，讓物理學的核心思想模糊不清，不知所在。物理學的專業人士，也常常不知所雲，更遑論一般讀者。而徐一鴻教授的“Quantum Field Theory ia Nutshell”，無論是寫作的風格，或者是問題的闡述及處理，都一掃前非。《簡明量子場論（第2版）》用略帶口語化的語言寫成，作者似乎是麵對麵與你談論有關的物理學話題。體現作者深刻物理學智慧的內容，俯拾皆是。用簡潔的數學工具，凸顯物理學思想，結閤輕鬆幽默的語言，不經意之間，將你引入物理學問題的核心。閱讀《簡明量子場論（第2版）》給你帶來的喜悅，和喜悅之後的收獲，似乎隻有“The FeynmaLectures oPhysics”，與之在伯仲之間。如果想體念和分享，量子場論之美，量子場論之優雅，你不可不讀《簡明量子場論（第2版）》。
