From astrophysics to condensed matter theory, nearly all of modern
physics employs the path integral technique. In this presentation,
the developer of path integrals and one of the best-known
scientists of all time, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard P.
Feynman, presents unique insights into this method and its
applications. Avoiding dense, complicated descriptions, Feynman
articulates his celebrated theory in a clear, concise manner,
maintaining a perfect balance between mathematics and
physics.
This emended edition of the original 1965 publication corrects
hundreds of typographical errors and recasts many equations for
clearer comprehension. It retains the original's verve and spirit,
and it is approved and endorsed by the Feynman family. The opening
chapters explore the fundamental concepts of quantum mechanics and
introduce path integrals. Subsequent chapters cover more advanced
topics, including the perturbation method, quantum electrodynamics,
and the relation of path integrals to statistical mechanics. In
addition to its merit as a text for graduate courses in physics,
this volume serves as an excellent resource for professionals.
