Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

In recent years, superstring theory has emerged as a promising approach to reconciling general relativity with quantum mechanics and unifying the fundamental interactions. Problems that have seemed insuperable in previous approaches take on a totally new character in the context of superstring theory, and some of them have been overcome. Interest in the subject has greatly increased following a succession of exciting recent developments. This two-volume book attempts to meet the need for a systematic exposition of superstring theory and its applications accessible to as wide an audience as possible.

Críticas

'The publication of this new two-volume text has ... been eagerly awaited ... Both volumes of Superstring Theory are likely to remain standard reference works for years to come; certainly, there is no serious rival at present.' Nature
