520    "Quantum physics and special relativity theory were two of
       the greatest breakthroughs in physics during the twentieth
       century and contributed to paradigm shifts in physics. 
       This book combines these two discoveries to provide a 
       complete description of the fundamentals of relativistic 
       quantum physics, guiding the reader effortlessly from 
       relativistic quantum mechanics to basic quantum field 
       theory. The book gives a thorough and detailed treatment 
       of the subject, beginning with the classification of 
       particles, the Klein-Gordon equation and the Dirac 
       equation. It then moves on to the canonical quantization 
       procedure of the Klein-Gordon, Dirac and electromagnetic 
       fields. Classical Yang-Mills theory, the LSZ formalism, 
       perturbation theory, elementary processes in QED are 
       introduced, and regularization, renormalization and 
       radiative corrections are explored. With exercises 
       scattered through the text and problems at the end of most
       chapters, the book is ideal for advanced undergraduate and
       graduate students in theoretical physics" -- provided by 
       publisher.
