Randall Kamien, University of Pennsylvania The topic is good, with renewed interest in the renormalization group by the new generation of string theorists and particle theorists.
Journal of Statistical Physics The clear exposition of the main ideas and the simple and agile notation the author uses help facilitate the comprehension of the different concepts presented. Researchers familiar with statistical physics methods will find a self-contained framework to grasp the essence of quantum field theory and the renormalization group and to elucidate the prominent role they play at present in physics. For this reason, this book is highly recommendable due to the insight it gives into quantum field theories, providing sound basis for further research.
