Introduction to Superstrings and M-Theory - Rilegato
Libro 5 di 19: Graduate Texts in Contemporary Physics
Sinossi
Called by some, "the theory of everything," superstring theory may lead to the unification of the two great theories of the 20th century, general relativity and quantum field theory. This text stresses various areas of interest, including: string field theory, multi loops, Teichmueller spaces, conformal field theory, and four-dimensional strings.

Recensione
From the reviews
Foundations of Physics, on the first edition:
"... the dedicated reader...will be well versed in this fascinating area of theoretical physics."
Physics Today, on the first edition:
"...presents a pedagogical survey on string theory. It covers material from early developments to present-day research ... divided into three parts ... results of quantization, string field theory, and phenomenology ... an impressive effort..."
FOUNDATIONS OF PHYSICS
"Kaku’s book, at 568 pages, is a comprehensive, self-contained text on string theory...[It] contains useful summaries of mathematical topics such as index theory, cohomology, and Kahler manifolds. This is a book for the really serious student of string theory; the dedicated reader who emerges after page 568 will be well versed in this fascinating area of theoretical physics.”
