Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

Review of quantum statistical mechanics -- Functional integral representation of the partition function -- Interactions and diagrammatic techniques -- Renormalization -- Quantum electrodynamics -- Linear response theory -- Spontaneous symmetry breaking and restoration -- Quantum chromodynamics -- Resummation and hard thermal loops -- Lattice gauge theory -- Dense nuclear matter -- Hot hadronic matter -- Nucleation theory -- Heavy ion collisions -- Weak interactions -- Astrophysics and cosmology.

The 2006 second edition of this book develops the basic formalism and theoretical techniques for studying relativistic quantum field theory at high temperature and density. Specific physical theories treated include QED, QCD, electroweak theory, and effective nuclear field theories of hadronic and nuclear matter. Topics include: functional integral representation of the partition function, diagrammatic expansions, linear response theory, screening and plasma oscillations, spontaneous symmetry breaking, Goldstone theorem, resummation and hard thermal loops, lattice gauge theory, phase transitions, nucleation theory, quark-gluon plasma, and color superconductivity. Applications to astrophysics and cosmology cover white dwarf and neutron stars, neutrino emissivity, baryon number violation in the early universe, and cosmological phase transitions. Applications to relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions are also included. The book is written for theorists in elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. Problems are given at the end of each chapter, and numerous references to the literature are included.
