"This book provides a comprehensive discussion of the foundations and fundamentals of effective field theories of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in the light quark sector with an emphasis on the study of flavour symmetries and their realizations. In this context, different types of effective field theories pertaining to various energy scales are considered and selected applications are devised. It also covers the formulation of effective field theories in a finite volume and its application in the analysis of lattice QCD data ...

"This book provides a comprehensive discussion of the foundations and fundamentals of effective field theories of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in the light quark sector with an emphasis on the study of flavour symmetries and their realizations. In this context, different types of effective field theories pertaining to various energy scales are considered and selected applications are devised. It also covers the formulation of effective field theories in a finite volume and its application in the analysis of lattice QCD data. Effective Field Theories is intended for graduate students and researchers in particle physics, hadron physics and nuclear physics. Exercises are included to help the reader deepen their understanding of the topics discussed throughout, with solutions available to lecturers. Ulf-G Meissner is Professor in Theoretical Physics at Bonn University, Germany and Director at the Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum J???ulich, Germany. His research focuses on strong interaction physics, especially nuclear and particle physics. He was awarded the Lise-Meitner prize of the European Physical Society and the Distinguished Scientist Award of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Akaki Rusetsky works at the Helmholtz Institute for Radiation and Nuclear Physics at Bonn University, Germany. His research focuses on strong interaction physics, effective field theories and lattice field theories. He received the Visiting Scientist award under the Chinese Academy of Sciences President's International Fellowship Initiative"--
