Summary
"Beginning with a systematic review of the standard exposition of string theory, which is required for a proper understanding of matrix models of string theory, this book proceeds to provide a comprehensive presentation of matrix models of string theory and their areas of applications. Supplemented with exercises and an appendix on Monte Carlo algorithms and methods used for matrix models of string theory this work provides both a valuable self-study guide for postgraduate students and a comprehensive review and reference guide for researchers." -- Prové de l'editor.
