"It
is well written and up to date ... I
can recommend this book to those
aiming for a broad working knowledge
of the essentials of particle
theory. It is a book to which I
shall continue to refer for a long
time." -- Contemporary
Physics
The book provides
a comprehensive account of particle
physics linking various aspects of
particle physics in a coherent manner.
This self-contained book not only cover
basic concepts and recent developments
but also overlaps between Astrophysics,
Cosmology and Particle Physics, known as
astroparticle physics. Several
appendices are included to make the book
self-contained.
