The methods of quantum field theory underpin many conceptual advances in contemporary condensed matter physics and neighbouring fields. This book provides a praxis-oriented and pedagogical introduction to quantum field theory in many-particle physics, emphasizing the application of theory to real physical systems. This third edition is organized into two parts: the first half of the text presents a streamlined introduction, elevating readers to a level where they can engage with contemporary research literature, from the introduction of many-body techniques and functional integration to renormalization group methods, and the second half addresses a range of advanced topics including modern aspects of gauge theory, topological and relativistic quantum matter, and condensed matter physics out of thermal equilibrium. At all stages, the text seeks a balance between methodological aspects of quantum field theory and practical applications. Extended problems with worked solutions provide a bridge between formal theory and a research-oriented approach.

Best source to learn Condensed Matter Field theory
I had already studied a few chapters in an online version of this fascinating book. However, after some time I realized I need to have this book handy always and finish reading all the chapters. This is not a story book. So, by 'Reading' I mean work with pencil and paper through each and every page of this book. CMT is a vast field, and this book covers most of the important topics that both beginners and experts who are going to stay in this field should learn. By the time you finish the first 400 pages (Part-I) you will be ready to conduct research in any of the topics. The authors have an excellent writing style, and the fonts are very inviting and readable. The historic remarks and pictures are additional features that will keep us glued to this book. My salute to the authors for taking enormous efforts to write this book carefully, and so well organized. If I find any mistakes, I will surely let them know. Thank you, and happy learning.

Excellent
This is an excellent introductory textbook for those young condensed matter theorists who wish to understand the physical concepts underlying their field, as well as be prepared to conduct their own research and read more serious literature.
