Description:
This book provides an introduction to the physics of quantized fields and many-body physics. It concentrates on the basic conceptual issues that many find difficult, and emphasizes the physical and visualizable aspects, employing examples from condensed matter physics because of the tangible character of such systems. The first part of the book uses the Hamiltonian operator language of traditional quantum mechanics to treat simple field theories and related topics. The Feynman path integral is introduced in the second half.
