Eight chapters comprise a brief introduction to the gauge theories of the strong and the electroweak interactions, the so-called grand unified theories, and general relativity. Ten more chapters address recent concepts such as composite fermions and bosons, supersymmetry, quantum gravity, supergravity, and strings theories, and relate them to modern cosmology and experimental astronomy.Collins, P. D. B. is the author of 'Particle Physics and Cosmology' with ISBN 9780471600886 and ISBN 0471600881.
