Table of ContentsReviews'Sen has written a superb book. It should be of special interest to any serious senior undergraduate or graduate student in theoretical physics, and to mathematical physicists and mathematicians working in quantum theory, quantum field theory, relativity, or the foundations of physics.' Mathematics Review 'A great deal of interesting historical material is included in these pages, some of it hard to find elsewhere ... the book has a good claim for a place on library shelves.' Contemporary Physics '... this is a book for a devoted reader with special interests in this area ...' MAA Reviews Sen has written a superb book. It should be of special interest to any serious senior undergraduate or graduate student in theoretical physics, and to mathematical physicists and mathematicians working in quantum theory, quantum field theory, relativity, or the foundations of physics. Howard E. Brandt, Mathematical Reviews A great deal of interesting historical material is included in these pages, some of it hard to find elsewhere, and the author assists his readers considerably by providing extensive mathematical appendices, within which many basic results are derived. For these reasons, and taking into account the fundamental importance of the subject matter, I would consider that the book has a good claim for a place on library shelves. Dr. Peter J.

Sen was a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Ben-Gurion University, Beer-Sheva, Israel, and is now retired. His main research interests were the theory of symmetry of infinite quantum-mechanical systems and mathematical investigations into the relation between mathematics and physics, particularly the origins of the differentiable structure of space-time. He has taught a broad spectrum of courses on physics and mathematics, as well as demography. A life member of Clare Hall, Cambridge, he has been a Gauss Professor in Göttingen and is also a member of the International Association for Mathematical Physics and the Israel Mathematical Union.
