This book is an introduction to the field of constrained
Hamiltonian systems and their quantization, a topic which is of
central interest to theoretical physicists who wish to obtain a
deeper understanding of the quantization of gauge theories, such as
describing the fundamental interactions in nature. Beginning with
the early work of Dirac, the book covers the main developments in
the field up to more recent topics, such as the field-antifield
formalism of Batalin and Vilkovisky, including a short discussion
of how gauge anomalies may be incorporated into this formalism. All
topics are well illustrated with examples emphasizing points of
central interest. The book should enable graduate students to
follow the literature on this subject without much problems, and to
perform research in this field.
