About this book
Reviews
“The main goal of this short book is to examine quantum action principles and, in particular, the Schwinger action principle. … For anyone who is interested in a good but brief introduction to the subject, this monograph should be considered.” (Paul F. Bracken, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2016)
