New Developments in Quantum Field Theory

Quantum field theory is one of most central constructions in 20th century th- retical physics, and it continues to develop rapidly in many different directions. The aim of the workshop ỚSNew Developments in Quantum Field TheoryỚ<U+00fd>, which was held in Zakopane, Poland, June 14-20, 1997...
