Opis

The contributions presented in this volume address graduate students as wellas researchers. They are intelligible and pedagogically well-written reviewsof the most recent developments in quantum field theory and both quantum gravity and quantum supergravity. Alongside technical problems of field quantization the reader will also find careful discussions of the conceptual framework and of applications to quantum cosmology.
