Summary: Chris Quigg’s Gauge Theories of the Strong, Weak, and Electromagnetic Interactions (Benjamin/Cummings, 1983) is a compact, pedagogical monograph that builds from symmetry principles to the construction and application of local gauge theories in particle physics. The book develops electrodynamics as a prototype, introduces non-Abelian gauge theories, treats spontaneous symmetry breaking and the Higgs mechanism, and applies these ideas to the electroweak theory and to quantum chromodynamics; worked calculations and references support classroom use and self-study.
