This authoritative work enhances the material outlined in the first volume of Concepts of Particle Physics, presenting it in far greater detail and with a higher degree of sophistication. The authors, both eminent physicists, provide an in-depth discussion of the electromagnetic interaction, explore the accuracy of the quark model by examining the excited states of baryons and mesons, and consider many other topics.
From reviews of Volume 1: '....highly readable, and can be warmly recommended to anyone who wishes to penetrate into this field' Acta Physica Austriaca 'The book may be recommended to anyone who not only wishes to learn the most important concepts of elementary particle physics, but also to study the intellectual atmosphere which gave rise to the exciting discoveries in this field.' Physikalische Blätter `A splendid review of subnuclear phenomena ... Physicists of all stripes have reason to look forward to Volume II with considerable enthusiasm.' Physics Today.
