Contents:
1. Basic principles -- 2. Quantum fields -- 3. Quantum fields in the Riemann spacetime -- 4. Symmetry breaking -- 5. Perturbative field theory -- 6. From quantum field theory to quantum mechanics -- 7. Electromagnetic field -- 8. Quantum mechanics -- 9. Applications of quantum -- 10. Statistical mechanics -- 11. Applications of statistical mechanics -- 12. General relativity-- Appendix A: Appendix B: Appendix C: Appendix D: Appendix E: Appendix F: Appendix G: Appendix H: Bibliography-- Index--
Summary: This book covers all the disciplines of fundamental physics, the book is concise and can be treated as an integrated entity. This is consistent with the aphorism that simplicity is beauty, unification is beauty, and thus physics is beauty. The book may be used as an advanced textbook by graduate students. It is also suitable for physicists who wish to have an overview of fundamental physics.
