Reviews

This book should not be missing from your bookshelf if you are working on theoretical or experimental aspects of QCD. Physik Journal Quantum Chromodynamics: High Energy Experiments and Theory is the first monograph that comprehensively addresses both aspects of QCD in one place. I recommend Quantum Chromodynamics to practitioners of QCD for its discussion of experiments. Physics Today Aimed at graduate students, post-doctoral physicists and professional researchers in particle physics, this book can be recommended to both experimentalists and theorists interested in QCD.
