This invaluable textbook is divided into two parts. The first part includes adetailed discussion on the discrete transformations for the Dirac equation aswell as on the central force problem for the Dirac equation. In the secondpart the external field problem is examined pair production and vacuumpolarization leading to charge renormalization are treated in detail.Relativistic Quantum Mechanics and Introduction to Quantum Field Theory hasarisen from a graduate course which the author taught for several years at theUniversity of Alberta to students interested in particle physics and fieldtheory. «
