Field quantization / Walter Greiner, Joachim Reinhardt ; with a foreword by D.A. Bromley.

Theoretical physics has become a many-faceted science. For the young stu dent it is difficult enough to cope with the overwhelming amount of new scientific material that has to be learned, let alone obtain an overview of the entire field, which ranges from mechanics through electrodynamics, quantum...
