Many numerical predictions of experimental phenomena in particle
physics are made possible by exploiting the discovery that
simplifications can happen when phenomena are investigated on short
distance and time scales. This book provides a coherent exposition
of the renormalization techniques underlying these calculations.
After reminding the reader of some basic properties of field
theories, examples are used to explain the problems to be treated.
The technique of dimensional regularization and the renormalization
group is then shown. Finally a number of key applications are
demonstrated, culminating in the treatment of deeply inelastic
scattering. Originally published in 1977, this title has been
reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.
