"This is the first systematic introduction to electromagnetic duality and its generalisations. The authors are the leading figures in this new area of mathematical physics, and their lectures have been organised not only to link with each other but also to describe the fundament…
An analysis of dualities in gauge and string theories. It is divided into two parts, the first containing lectures and the second containing seminars from the APCTO Winter School in Korea. Subjects addressed include intersecting branes and cohomological Yang-Mills theory in eigh…
The discovery by Green and Schwarz in 1984 that ten-dimensional superstring theory is anomaly-free and finite only if the Yang-Mills gauge group is SO(32) or E8 x E8 has made the phenomenological possibilities of superstrings evident. This has resulted in a sudden surge of inter…
Explores the early stages of the development of string theory; essential reading for physicists, historians and philosophers of science.
The birth of string theory

Type: Book
String theory is currently the best candidate for a unified theory of all forces and all forms of matter in nature. As such, it has become a focal point for physical and philosophical discussions. This unique book explores the history of the theory's early stages of development,…
