This book is a survey of methods used in the study of two-dimensional models in quantum field theory as well as applications of these theories in physics. It covers the subject since the first model, studied in the fifties, up to modern developments in string theories, and includes exact solutions, non-perturbative methods of study, and nonlinear sigma models.

The second edition of "Non-Perturbative Methods in Two-Dimensional Quantum Field Theory" is an extensively revised version, involving major changes and additions. Although much of the material is special to two dimensions, the techniques used should prove helpful also in the development of techniques applicable in higher dimensions. In particular, the last three chapters of the book should be of direct interest to researchers wanting to work in the field of conformal field theory and strings. This book is intended for students working for their PhD degree and post-doctoral researchers wishing...

“The authors have made a great effort to present in a careful and systematic way such a complete treatise for the benefit of non-specialists. This book is thus of great value to students and research physicists interested in two-dimensional quantum field theory. Numerous (15) useful appendices help the reader to understand and rederive the results at will, making the book self-contained.”
