Steven Weinberg (1933-2021) was a theoretical physicist and Nobel
laureate who contributed tremendously to particle physics. Until
his death, Weinberg was regarded by many as the greatest living
scientist. His most well-known work was the formulation of
electroweak theory for which he earned the 1979 Nobel Prize with
Sheldon Glashow and Abdus Salam, but his research spanned many
other fields. Examples include effective Lagrangians, quantum
chromodynamics, supersymmetry, quantum gravity, and
cosmology.Weinberg's publications were renowned not only for their
profundity and originality but also for their devastating logic and
clarity. This volume brings together 37 of his most significant
papers, together with commentaries, providing today's physicists
with easy access to these seminal papers. More than just a
collection, this selection by editor Michael Duff places each
article into a comprehensive overview, providing the reader with
the scientific and historical context of Weinberg's finest papers.
