Few people studying Gauge Field Theory need to be convinced of the
importance of the work of 't Hooft. This volume contains a
selection of articles and review topics covering his well-known
studies on the renormalization of non-Abelian gauge theorems,
topological phenomena in gauge field theory and thoughts on the
role of black holes in quantum gravity. The chapters are tied
together by thoughtful commentaries which provide a background and
the illumination of hindsight - together they form a clear and
coherent picture of the physical and theoretical importance of
gauge theories and the gauge principle. This book is ideal for
students and researchers. Gerard 't Hooft is Professor of
Theoretical Physics at the University of Utrecht, The Netherlands.
He has taught at Harvard, SLAC and Caltech prior to his present
position. Other distinguished honors include being awarded the
Dannie Heineman Prize, the Honorary Doctorate of Science from the
University of Chicago, Wolf Prize of the State of Israel, Pius XI
Medal (Vatican), and the Lorentz Medal (KNAW, Amsterdam).
