This classic text, long since recommended by many lecturers, combines a lively with the rigor needed for a solid understanding of the theories, models and calculation techniques. The first chapter provides a detailed historical introduction to the subject, while subsequent chapters offer a consistent and modern presentation, covering the quark model, Feynman diagrams, quantum electrodynamics, and gauge theories. The book contains an abundance of worked examples and many end-of-chapter problems. This new edition is rounded off by a solutions manual.
