A. Zee



I am a professor of theoretical physics and an author of several books for the general public and a textbook on quantum field theory.


Fearful Symmetry

An Old Man's Toy

Swallowing Clouds


Do you like to laugh out loud? Do you like Mysteries?



My budding career as a writer: Even Shakespeare likes my writing style!



My aborted career as a mountaineer. My foray into theater & physics, audience & reader. An introduction to the new edition of Feynman's QED. Firing a Civil War cannon.


My textbook, Quantum Field Theory in a Nutshell, was published by Princeton University Press.

As much fun as possible! (This could be a nice motto.)

It is often deeper to know why something is true rather than to have a proof that it is true.



 

I live in Santa Barbara and work in an institute by the sea. How many theoretical physicists can you identify by sight?
