Graduate students who wish to become familiar with advanced
computational strategies in classical and quantum dynamics will
find in this book both the fundamentals of a standard course and a
detailed treatment of the time-dependent oscillator, Chern-Simons
mechanics, the Maslov anomaly and the Berry phase, to name just a
few topics. Well-chosen and detailed examples illustrate
perturbation theory, canonical transformations and the action
principle, and demonstrate the usage of path integrals. The fifth
edition has been revised and enlarged to include chapters on
quantum electrodynamics, in particular, Schwinger's proper time
method and the treatment of classical and quantum mechanics with
Lie brackets and pseudocanonical transformations. It is shown that
operator quantum electrodynamics can be equivalently described with
c-numbers, as demonstrated by calculating the propagation function
for an electron in a prescribed classical electromagnetic field.
