这本书，首次出版于2007年，是一本介绍性的教科书量子场论在引力背景下，为本科生和开始研究生在理论天体物理学，宇宙学，粒子物理学领域，和弦理论。这本书涵盖了基本的（但必不可少的）材料的量子化领域在一个不断扩大的宇宙和量子波动的通货膨胀时空。它还包含了对卡西米尔、昂鲁和霍金效应的详细解释，并介绍了用于计算量子系统在经典外部引力场上的反作用的有效作用量方法。所涵盖的材料的广泛范围将为读者提供对该主题的透彻视角。每一个主要的结果都是从第一原理推导出来的，并得到了充分的解释。这本书是自成一体的，只假设了广义相对论的基本知识。在整本书中提供了详细的解决方案的练习。
This book, first published in 2007, is an introductory textbook on quantum field theory in gravitational backgrounds intended for undergraduate and beginning graduate students in the fields of theoretical astrophysics, cosmology, particle physics, and string theory. The book covers the basic (but essential) material of quantization of fields in an expanding universe and quantum fluctuations in inflationary spacetime. It also contains a detailed explanation of the Casimir, Unruh, and Hawking effects, and introduces the method of effective action used for calculating the back-reaction of quantum systems on a classical external gravitational field. The broad scope of the material covered will provide the reader with a thorough perspective of the subject. Every major result is derived from first principles and thoroughly explained. The book is self-contained and assumes only a basic knowledge of general relativity. Exercises with detailed solutions are provided throughout the book.
