Rezension

“Assuming an introductory course on differential geometry and some basic knowledge of special relativity, both of which are summarized in the appendices, the book expounds the mathematical background behind the well-established standard model of modern particle and high energy physics… I believe that the book will be a standard textbook on the standard model for mathematics-oriented students.” (Hirokazu Nishimura, zbMATH 1390.81005)
