This book is a translation of the 8th edition of Prof. Kazuhiko
Nishijima's classical textbook on quantum field theory. It is based
on the lectures the Author gave to students and researchers with
diverse interests over several years in Japan. The book includes
both the historical development of QFT and its practical use in
theoretical and experimental particle physics, presented in a
pedagogical and transparent way and, in several parts, in a unique
and original manner. The Author, Academician Nishijima, is the
inventor (independently from Murray Gell-Mann) of the third
(besides the electric charge and isospin) quantum number in
particle physics: strangeness. He is also most known for his works
on several other theories describing particles such as electron and
muon neutrinos, and his work on the so-called Gell-Mann-Nishijima
formula. The present English translation from its 8th Japanese
edition has been initiated and taken care of by the editors Prof.
M. Chaichian and Dr. A. Tureanu from the University of Helsinki,
who were close collaborators of Prof. Nishijima. Dr. Yuki Sato, a
researcher in particle physics at the University of Nagoya, most
kindly accepted to undertake the heavy task of translation. The
translation of the book can be regarded as a tribute to Prof.
Nishijima's memory, for his fundamental contributions to particle
physics and quantum field theory. The book presents with utmost
clarity and originality the most important topics and applications
of QFT which by now constitute the established core of the theory.
It is intended for a wide circle of graduate and post-graduate
students, as well as researchers in theoretical and particle
physics. In addition, the book can be a useful source as a basic
material or supplementary literature for lecturers giving a course
on quantum field theory.
