Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 10 Jan 2017).

A brief history of unification -- Gravitation -- Non-Abelian gauge theory -- The standard model -- Anomalies -- Effective Lagrangians -- Supersymmetry -- Grand unification -- MSSM Lagrangian -- N=1 supergravity -- Coupling of supergravity with matter and gauge fields -- Supergravity grand unification -- Phenomenology of supergravity grand unification -- CP violation in supergravity unified theories -- Proton stability in supergravity unified theories -- Cosmology, astroparticle physics and SUGRA unification -- Extended supergravities and supergravities from superstrings -- Specialized topics -- The future of unification.

This unique book gives a modern account of particle physics and gravity based on supersymmetry and supergravity, two of the most significant developments in theoretical physics since general relativity. The book begins with a brief overview of the history of unification and then goes into a detailed exposition of both fundamental and phenomenological topics. The topics in fundamental physics include Einstein gravity, Yang-Mills theory, anomalies, the standard model, supersymmetry and supergravity, and the construction of supergravity couplings with matter and gauge fields, as well as computational techniques for SO(10) couplings. The topics of phenomenological interest include implications of supergravity models at colliders, CP violation, and proton stability, as well as topics in cosmology such as inflation, leptogenesis, baryogenesis, and dark matter. The book is intended for graduate students and researchers seeking to master the techniques for building grand unified models.
