Renormalization an introduction to renormalization, the renormalization group and the operator-product expansion

Most of the numerical predictions of experimental phenomena in particle physics over the last decade have been made possible by the discovery and exploitation of the simplifications that can happen when phenomena are investigated on short distance and time scales. This book provides a coherent expos...
