FIELDS
What makes it different
- It's free.
- It's fast. You can download it from arXiv.org or its mirrors, just
like preprints, without a trip to the library or bookstore or waiting for an
order from the publisher.
- It's electronic. You can print it, but the PDF version has many advantages, like:
- Download it at work, home, etc. (or carry it on a CD), rather
than carrying a book or printing multiple copies.
- Get updates just as quickly, rather than printing yet again.
- It has the usual Web links, so you can get the referenced papers just as
easily.
- It has a separate "outline" window containing a table of contents on
which you can click to take the main window to that item.
- You can electronically search (do a "find" on) the text.
- Save trees (and ink).
- Theft is not a problem.
- No wear or tear.
- No paper cuts.
It covers many recent topics at an introductory yet nontrivial level, such as:
- supersymmetry
- general relativity
- supergravity
- strings
It introduces many topics not appearing in other textbooks, including:
- 1/N expansion (color ordering) in QCD, including relation to random
worldsheets
- spacecone (spinor helicity), including explicit calculations of 4- and
5-point S-matrices in Yang-Mills
- many useful gauges, such as Gervais-Neveu, Nielsen-Kallosh, unitary
lightcone, and even string gauges in gravity
- finite N=1 supersymmetric theories
