Taylor & Francis, 2004

If you are having trouble with QFT - BUY THIS BOOK!
This book (2nd edition) has 15 chapters . I have just finished chapter 4 entitled QFT and I am compeled to write this review! After a year of studying of QFT informally I can report that this is the way to introduce yourself to the topic. I've been through Mandl & Shaw, Peskin & Schoeder, Ryder, Weinberg and a few others and this is heads and tails the BEST intro available. In 42 pages, ...

The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns: Basic Designs in Multiple Sizes & Gauges (Interweave)

Interweave Press, 2002

The one book you can't knit without
If you ever needed just one knitting book, this is it. This is like having milk and butter and eggs in the fridge. You can't make anything without it. there is a good solid foundation of pattern, technique and freedom of design. I also highly value all the gauges that are provided, because I never have the yarn for the pattern, or vice versa. It takes a lot of guesswork and frustration out of ...

Quantum Field Theory: A Modern Introduction

12 reviews
Michio Kaku

Oxford University Press, USA, 1993

This is an Introduction - Not an In-Depth Study...DUH
Some of these reviewers need to review the title of the book. This is a "modern introduction to quantum field theory", not some in-depth study with hearty breadth. Duh. For physicist's you people don't have much common sense to speak of.

The Knitter's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns: Basic Designs in Multiple Sizes & Gauges

Ann Budd

Interweave Press, 2004

I love this book!
I love this book. I have designed and knit four sweaters for myself using the basic patterns here. I have a 'nonstandard' figure, and the charts of sizes let me modify a pattern so that the sleeves are long enough, the bust is big enough and the shoulder seams don't drip down my upper arms! I also love the flexibility of gauges so that I'm not tied to one type of yarn. I seem to never like ...

Tranceptor: Book Two: Iron Gauge, Part One (Tranceptor)

Amerotica, 2007

Always Amazing Work
Michael Manning's art is always amazing. This continues where my favorite story, Tranceptor, left off. If you liked Tranceptor, you'll like this one. It doesn't get too far along plot wise, so I'm already hungering for Part two of book two, but it's well worth a read!

Perfect.
I received the book as it should be: knew. And it cames before the estimated time.

Using this book successfully for over six months
This book has been my goto reference for the last six months as I learned to chart my cycles. It is clearly written and the method is well explained with a lot of side-explanations and tips that I found helpful. She covers the rules for preventing or achieving pregnancy, also during breast-feeding, menopause and for women who don't ovulate regularly. She also covers common cycle and ...

Fundamental Forces of Nature: The Story of Gauge Fields

Kerson Huang

World Scientific Publishing Company, 2007

Excellent Popular Treatment of Gauge Fields
This book is an excellent review of gauge fields. The scope is from Maxwell to renormalization groups, with an epilogue that diagrammatically sums up the last few chapters. The book is a popularization, not a text book. It is comparable to Zee's "Fearful Symmetry". If you don't know what gauge fields, QED and QCD are about, this is probably not the place to start. But if you'd like a very ...

Deep Down Things: The Breathtaking Beauty of Particle Physics

27 reviews
Bruce A. Schumm

The Johns Hopkins University Press, 2004

Review for physicists
First a little about my background. I have a master's degree in mathematics, along with the usual undergraduate courses in physics (including introductory Quantum Mechanics). I am currently taking a survey course on elementary particle physics. This course is still at the undergraduate level, so there's no Quantum Field Theory (other than mentioning that there is something called QFT). Being a ...

Gauge Fields, Knots, and Gravity (Series on Knots and Everything, Vol. 4)

6 reviews
John C. Baez, Javier P. Muniain

World Scientific Publishing Company, 1994

Perfect
A beautifully written book which should be entitled "quantum gravity primer for the practical man". Clear and self-contained, this book will serve aa a small survey of mathematical physics, giving the reader tools in particle physics and gravity. Excellently motivated topics. Compact enough to bring with you anywhere. The only thing it fails at is dicing a proper tomato.

Gauge Theory and Variational Principles

David Bleecker

Dover Publications, 2005

Spivak on Steroids
As the title suggests this "text" serves as an introduction to the QFT and guage theories recast in the "modern" mathematical setting of differential geometry. This book is only 167 ( 1/2 regular size paper ) pages long. Although self-contained I highly recommend the reader have a working knowledge of QFT and at least an introductory course in GR. The mathematical tools of the reader should ...

Collector's Guide to Classic O Gauge Trains (Collector's Guide to Classic O-Gauge Trains)

Krause Publications, 2007

Classic O Gauge Trains
This book is well done. It has clear photos, and is super-organized and delightfully written. The U.S. toy train industry grew and changed since the beginning of the 20th Century until the 1960 downturn. This book covers this time period and is a fine cross-section of all the major (and some minor) manufacturers and the history behind them from their genesis, who merged with whom, and who lost ...

Great work
The best I've seen, they could have put some of the over seas gun powder to shell chart in it but this works for me. I've the loads I need to shoot all day, I shoot Trap and Skeet. thank You, John Taylor, Bubba

Excellent book
The book is written at a medium to advanced Physics level. Not an easy book for those who study the subject for the first time. Excellent for more advanced readers. Can also be used as e reference book.

Colorado and Southern Railway (Images of Rail: Colorado)
Allan C. Lewis

Arcadia Publishing, 2004

" In 1860, thousands journeyed to the Colorado Territory, beckoned by reports of gold discoveries in the mountains west of Denver. In the early 1870s, W.A.H. Loveland built a railroad connecting Denver to the Clear Creek Mining District-the Colorado Central Railroad. Over the next 28 years, other lines were established, bought, sold, extended, and merged to service the mining towns of Black Hawk, Central City,

Society for Industrial Applied Mathematics, 2005

Excellent reading for people interested in quantifying uncertainty in measurement
The book is excellent reading for people interested in quantifying uncertainty in measurement. However it is important to understand that the publication deals with quantifying uncertainty in measurement due to the measurement system and NOT the device under test it self. This means that one should compare notes with the ISO publication regarding uncertainty in measurement (eg Type A and Type B). ...

An Elementary Primer for Gauge Theory

1 review
K. Moriyasu

World Scientific Publishing Company, 1983

Pre W- and Z-boson book
Although published in 1983, this book predates the discoveries made at CERN of the intermediate vector bosons. This discovery coupled with the discovery of weak neutral currents more than a decade before, solidified the role of gauge theories in providing a unified theory of elementary particle interactions. The author does a fine job of introducing the history of gauge theory, and also its ...
