Relativistic Dynamics and Quark-Nuclear Physics

This book treats and contrasts two competing orientations toward nuclear structure and scattering: the traditional, relativistic meson theory and the more modern quark-gluon theory. It includes recent developments and focuses on fundamental theory, featuring discussion of research projects currently under study. Also considered are such topics as the application of meson theory in nuclear physics, the theoretical approach in electron scattering, application of quantum chromatic dynamics to the scattering of electrons from nuclei, lattice gauge theory and much more. The book will be useful to graduate students of all levels.
