Description

This comprehensive volume links field theory methods from particle physics with those in critical phenomena and statistical mechanics. By focusing on the phenomenological framework of graphs and power counting, it provides an accessible approach to rigor and lengthy proofs.

The book introduces quantum field theory to those already familiar with statistical mechanics and advanced quantum theory, with sufficient exercises for use as a textbook in a one-semester graduate course. New chapters cover real space methods, finite size scaling, and Monte Carlo methods, offering a range of perspectives on numerical field theory.
