Quantum Field Theory (Dover Books on Physics)

This book very well written on a difficult subject

this book was as was described when I ordered it, but when I reviewed it, I was afraid it wouldn't have any Feynman diagrams (just for the visual and novelty of it) but after receiving the book, I was far from disappointed; plenty of pictorials.

a classical textbook

Quantum Field Theory by Itzykson and Zuber is truly a great text for this subject. The exposition is fairly good as well as a good number of examples without being just a problem book. There is something in it for everyone from experimental particle physicists to theorists. In this way it has a truly broad scope which makes it even more attractive given that you can normally find a copy for under $30. The book is not a great book for a first time exposure to the material, but I came to really appreciate this book when I took QFT using Peskin and Schroder and found that after I worked through most of semester with that text that Itzykson and Zuber became very accessible to me and handles certain topics a little better that P&S. I gave it only 4/5 just for the text not being an real intro type text.

As anybody who is an expert or a student in the field knows, this is the best book availableon the subject. Dover Publication Inc.'s paperback republication of this book, which wasoriginally by McGraw-Hill, Inc., is an excellent idea. The Dover version has better fontsthat are clearer than the original McGraw-Hill version. On top of that, amazon.com madeit much easier for many people to order it over Internet. I will definitely recommendstudents to buy this paperback version in the future.

a book so cheap yet so great. the shipment is fast too. recommend to others who need it.

This book is comprehensive, BUT ...There are 10 errata pages in the front with 121 entries, mostly in formulas. I don't dare read it until I mark all the erratas in each chapter. With that many errors, they should have corrected the edition before printing.

After purchasing this book for the Kindle I was very disappointed. On all my devices, the formulas are so small as to be illegible. These is no way to expand them. Don't waste your money on the Kindle edition.

Recebi hoje. Impressão boa, paginação comum. Está com amassado na capa devido à embalagem em envelope, mas não prejudica a leitura.

My library was missing a QFT book. This one has been a great addition.

Das Buch erschien bereits 1980. Das macht verständlich, warum nicht alle Themen, die heute in der Quantenfeldtheorie von Interesse sind, behandelt werden, aber die Auswahl gibt einen guten Einstieg in die QFT, geschrieben in von ausgewiesenen Experten.

Ottimo libro che avevo già preso in biblioteca, e ho comprato adesso. E' ben fatto, anche se ha la copertina paperback!! Arrivo addirittura anticipato rispetto al termine fornito da Amazon, quindi Amazon sempre impeccabile!!! Consigliato, detto da uno studente di Fisica della magistrale in Teorica.
